I’ve been using the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 3 beta for about 8 months now. In that time I’ve created several different watermark presets but have not really had time to manage those watermarks. Now that the final release version is available, I’ve updated and installed the final version and deleted all beta version. The nice…

Thanks very much
They should work on this, you save me a lot of time and effort
Michel, No kidding… I was scratching my head for days on this one. Glad I could help you out. That was my main intention for the post!
Tnx for the tip. This helped me a lot. ^^
Worked perfectly. Thank you.
Awesome!
So glad I found this – THANKS YOU for explaining. 25 years in IT and I couldn’t work this one out!
John, No worries… this one drove me nuts for a long time. I’m just spreading what I’ve found! 
Hey … wonderful. Exactly what I was searching for. Thanx
Thanks saved me a bit of time!
Thank you very much. I found this really helpful!
Thanks for helping again
Om.
Thanks so much for the information. I am new to lightroom and I just could not figure it out. Just decieded to google it and came across this information. Sure would be nice to find other tips for the use of this program.
Hello. Except the Light Room version I have now, I go to Edit, and then drop down to the end where it says “edit watermark” but it doesn’t give me the present one that’s on there, it just has the option to create a new one over the existing one. Am I missing something?
Thanks!! You save my life in lightroom!
Thank you thank you! Yes this was driving me nuts and you saved the day. Though I wish it was easier.
When I initially found this I had to post it online to help others. I know it’s kind of hidden and not well documented so I’m glad this helped you and everyone else that has taken the time to comment!
Thanks a bunch Scott! Genius!
I don’t know about genius but you’re welcome… just sharing the knowledge.
This thread changed my life. Well, it DID make it a bit easier. Many thanks for posting this.
lol… well I’m glad it made it a bit easier for you
Thanks so much…i couldn’t figure that one out on my own!
Really helped me…Thanks!
Thanks…something i could not find in a 65.00$ book D-65′s lightroom book…Cool beans
I take credit cards…
You’re welcome!!
I’m glad it helped!
Thanks for helping! I was trying to figure this out for days! Finally.. phew!
thanks a lot!!!

Scott,
Thanks so much for your tip. When I was creating the watermark I had to save it to check things like position and opacity. I was quickly running out of file nicknames! Your info was spot-on! I really appreciate you sharing the info since Adobe thinks we should use osmosis to know it!
Thanks, this info was SO helpful! I could not figure out how to delete old watermarks either. My issue is that as I was creating & experimenting with different watermarks that I have like 50 saved ones, so this is going to take time to delete them all. Wish they made an easier way to delete more than 1 at a time. Thanks again, this was just the info I needed.
Mike, I’m glad I could help. This one had me for a while so I wanted to share what I found!
Thank you so much, this was so helpful!
Thank you!!
agreed…not intuitive….thank you!!
You’re welcome!
Glad it helped Carly!
Maybe this will be changed in LR4?
Thanks! I really needed this info and it worked perfectly! Great post
Thank you so very much! I was going crazy trying to figure out these changes. Thanks for sharing!
You’re welcome Aura!
You have no idea how many non existent hair I would have pulled off from my clean shaven head but for this life saver. You are Santa Claus and the people who made the software for Adobe are . . . well I guess this might be a family sight so lets just leave that bit out . . .
You are my new favourite person *hands cookie*
Thankyou so much!
Good article, Scott. As you so adequately pointed out, this functionality is anything but intuitive. Let’s hope there’s a maintenance upgrade.
Thanks.
Bruce
lol… please don’t pull any hair out! Just keep it shaven!
Mmmmmm… snicker doodle! You’re welcome!
Thanks and I’m glad it’s been a help to you!
THANK YOU for your simple instructions and help!
Thanks Scott very much. I’ve been tearing my hair out trying to figure out how to delete or re-name Watermark Presets. What a lifesaver you have been.
You’ve saved my day. Been pulling my hair out to find out how to delete or rename watermark presets in Adobe Lightroom.
Thanks for this. I don’t suppose there’s a way to delete more than one at a time? I’ve created about 50 of them with varying degrees of “use this one” and “new and improved” and “no really use THIS one” now that I know how to delete them. Anyway, even if I have to dedicate half an hour to methodically deleting them all, at least now I know how!
One of the new features of Adobe Photoshop CS5 is the addition of Content-Aware to the Fill dialog box. This a an awesome new feature and makes cleaning up areas in photograph really easy. Plus, it does a really nice job. But while testing this new feature in the CS5 prerelease beta I found that…

Thanks for the tip, I’ve been searching for the whole day for a solution to this! I just tried, but for some reason the Shift-Delete does not work. It has the same effect as a simple delete… I am wondering, is there something I did not catch?
Interesting… I’m still using the CS5 beta. Are you using the release version? I’ve yet to install the release version as it’s on my todo list!! I’ll have to check this out and let you know what I find. Thanks for the feedback!
Yes, mine is the final release (v12.0), CS5 Extended. I am running the x64 version, wonder if that affects this trick?
You never know… It’s possible. I’ll have to install the final release and check it out myself. I’ll post back here with my results!
OK Scott, thanks! I’ll follow up then.
I’ve finally installed the release version of Adobe CS5 (standard edition) and using the Shift+Del key still works to bring up Content-Aware Fill on duplicate layers.
Thanks a lot! I was getting crazy trying to get content-aware fill with the Del key!
Glad it helped!!
I finally bring up the “content aware” options. A little circle appears and then the selected image disappears from the screen and only the background with the grid shows. What am I doing wrong? THANKS. Please help.
Your explanation about this particularity of the Photoshop CS5 Content-Aware Fill only working on a background image was very useful to me. I was getting frustrated with this tool because I couldn’t figure out why sometimes the Content-Aware Fill was available and other times it was not.
Thanks!
You are very welcome and I’m glad this helped you out. I was very frustrated as well and when I figured this out I had to share it.
Help! Every time I try to delete something, I get this dialog. It’s driving me nuts How do I delete without this dialog constantly popping up. I’m not holding the shift key down, so I don’t understand why I’m getting it.
Having to do a two step process every time I want to delete something is nuts!
What’s going on?
Thank you so much! I was having the opposite problem . . . seeing the content-aware was driving me crazy. I tried hitting shift+delete, and it keeps the dialog box from coming up while deleting on the background!
Awesomee !!! Thanks
