- Images rendered from the Slideshow export process produced a jagged effect on hard edges relative to the quality of normal JPEG export
- li>Increased the number of characters allowed in Web gallery labels beyond 150 characters
- Catalogs with hundreds of root (top level) folders caused very slow launch times
- Drag and drop to move a subfolder to a different folder showed the incorrect photos in the grid
- Print Sharpening produced edge artifacts in certain conditions
- Density defaulted to 100 percent for initial stroke regardless of position of slider
- The Adjustment brush created blocky, straight edges to brush strokes under certain conditions
- Lightroom could become unresponsive when using the graduated filter under certain conditions
- It was possible to lose the ability to edit an adjustment brush setting after applying a graduated filter with hidden pins

- Print to JPEG functionality produced a low resolution image when printing photos with panorama aspect ratios
