Rick,

New information. Just checked, I don't experience the same situation with LR. Popup window is not black. It seems it's really an issue with PS.

Hi Rick, Thanks for your reply and information.

I tried a lot of situations

On macOS: 

  • In Photoshop, choose Photoshop > Preferences > Camera Raw 
  • In Bridge, choose Adobe Bridge > Camera Raw Preferences

My video card (and GPU AMD Radeon Pro 575X) appears everywhere and considered as well running.

In addition I could say it seems "Accentuate" option runs fine because confronting Raw picture and DNG picture shows a real improvement. There is only the monitoring window which stays black.

This is a good basic GPU troubleshooting doc.  

https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/acr-gpu-faq.html

It walks you through determining the status of your GPU and how Camera Raw is using it as well as some additional steps to take.

Hi Rick, Last one: 11.4

For information, when I move the mouse pointer (a hand) into the black window, relevant part on the photo (surrounded white square) is moving according the mouse shifting.

Hi Rikk,

iMac and Graphic card is (AMD) Radeon Pro 575X 4Go. Meaning this GPU is not compatible with last requirement of Camera Raw ?

That typically indicates a GPU incompatibility. Can you check with your video card manufacturer for an update?
