P: Filmstrip is covering / overlapping filter- and breadcrumb bar

I continue to have this problem after spending over two hours online with support today.  I was told that it would be fixed in an update that is coming out in the next few days.  Resetting preferences and unchecking the show tab bar doesn't help.

I also have a missing rating row above the filmstrip.  Am using the latest CC and latest Mac os.  I am wondering if it is due to the "show tab bar" creating an extra row , and thus hiding the rating row.  For me this has happened a few times and the solution is reset the preferences.  But beware, each time you reset I think it defaults to 240 dpi instead of 300 dpi. So I have given the wrong dpi to clients !  oops .  This problem wasn't resolved with the last cc update!

When I opened Lightroom today, the filmstrip was bigger than usual and is covering part of the toolbar so I can't access ratings and other things. I'm unable to adjust the size of the toolbar like I can normally do. I am using LR 6.8 and Mac Sierra version 10.12.3. I didn't change I thing since last night when it was working fine. Any ideas?.

I believe this issue and the disappearing modules issue are related. Once I changed my view settings back to normal and relaunched LR I no longer had blackout, or disappearing modules, and my filmstrip was displaying properly again. Incidentally, I started messing with my view settings because after the update my filter bar was missing. I am using a Mac OS 10.12.

This worked perfectly for me.

I had exactly same issue on Lightroom CC on Mac Sierra and solution by Nikita solved my issue too! 

Hi Nikita, I had the same issue as Andreas, exactly like his screenshot, your solution of unticking the Show Tab Bar and restarting worked like a dream. thanks.  I am using LR CC and Mac Sierra. 

I have this problem. Just started. I tried resetting preferences but I lost so much customized information in preferences that I decided I'd rather have a clipped filmstrip that have to re-customize my entire LIghtroom set up.  When I threw way the new preferences and reinstalled the old preferences and relaunched LR, my problem disappeared. (Along the way learned that what I was really missing/what really nagged me was called the filter bar, and I made sure that show filter bar was clicked on.) Now everything is showing like I want it to. Might hold my breath and hope this problem doesn't replicate itself. I'm using a Mac, OS10.12.2 and Lightroom on the CC.

Thanks for clarifying.

John, that confused me when I first saw it suggested (by Victoria). Apparently it's a new feature of Mac Sierra.
