Tip #1 is FALSE! You will still have access to the visualize spots tool, especially if it's already selected. I stopped watching after tip 3 - this sound more like a rant of why Adobe didn't do this or didn't do that by default. Didn't learn a damn thing, other than you're mad b/c Adobe didn't set the program up the way you like it. Not everyone uses the same features the same way as you; that's why they let you "customize" it to your liking.

Thank you for the feedback on this tutorial. You are correct that I have an axe to grind with Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Classic's default User Interface design. As someone who has been teaching this program for more than a decade, I have seen firsthand what poor UX design does for the average student's learning curve. :< You are also completely correct that "not everyone uses the same features" and that is why the let you customize some of the UI to suit your needs. Where I must push back a little on your comment though is your claim that you can "still access the visualize spots tool" even if the Develop Module Toolbar is hidden. Yes, you can turn this feature on and off using its keyboard shortcut which is the letter (A) on an English keyboard but you will never be able to adjust the *Visualize Spots Range* control. You will never be able to access this critical feature because it exists only on the Toolbar!
