P: LrC v15.4 & later Assisted Culling red-x reject badges persist on filmstrip thumbnails

Collapsing the Assisted Culling panel does NOT remove the red glyph with the white X in the corner of many issues.  It doesn’t show up in the library module but it show up in the film strip at the bottom of the screen.  It is really annoying.  I have Assisted Culling turned off in the Catalog Settings and the Assisted Culling panel turned off in the side panel.  Mac OS Tahoe 26.5.2

​@Sameer K Collapse the Assisted Culling Panel in Right side. This should make the badges go away.

Duh, so simple and obvious.  Thanks for calling that out.

Thanks, Sameer. That workaround successfully cleared the glyphs for me! 🙌

For the engineering ticket, note this specific UI state progression for my use case in case it helps identify where the bug is taking place:

• Pre-Update: The Assisted Culling panel was completely deactivated, as I don’t use it.

• Post-Update: Badges rendered immediately on all filmstrip images in the catalog, despite the deactivated state.

• Resolution Sequence: I had to activate the panel, collapse it to clear the badges, and then deactivate it again.

• Stability: The UI remains clean after returning to the deactivated state.

Unfortunately, Assisted Culling doesn't seem to be the root cause in my case, as I have it completely disabled. The behavior also differs from a standard rejection marker. While your example shows the red X correctly placed in the main Library Grid, my grid is entirely clean; the error glyph is exclusively overlaying every single thumbnail down in the Filmstrip.

However, your note prompted a test. When I actively turned Assisted Culling on by selecting “Subject Focus,” both the Filmstrip and Library Grid suddenly behaved exactly as expected. This strongly points to a UI rendering error that triggers specifically when Assisted Culling is deactivated.

I've attached a screenshot below so you can see the clean grid sitting directly above the flagged filmstrip.

I’m having the same issue. Here’s a quick bug report:
 

Spurious Red 'X' Glyph in Filmstrip (LrC 15.4.1)

Trigger: Updated to LrC 15.4.1 today. Catalog opened immediately displaying the error.

Symptom: A red circle with a white 'X' glyph overlays all image thumbnails. Hovering yields no tooltip or error string.

Scope & Isolation Vectors:

• Library Filmstrip: Error glyph present on all images.

• Library Grid (Main Window): Normal. No error glyphs.

• Develop Module: Normal. No error glyphs. Editing functions perfectly.

• Print Module: Normal. No error glyphs.

Environment & Diagnostics:

• Storage: Network Attached Storage (NAS).

• Link Status: Fully connected. "Show in Finder" works flawlessly.

• Assessment: This appears to be a localized UI rendering bug in the Library filmstrip, not a broken link or catalog corruption.
