P: Library zoomed view shows wrong color

When zooming into an image in library mode, the color changes suddenly and differs from all the consistent colours shown in develop mode or library mode (fit image). I just updated to LR10.1 and appreciated other fixed bugs. I am using an external BenQ display calibrated to AdobeRGB profile using xrite. The images have Adobe profiles (AdobeVivid) applied.

@Rick You filed a bug just now??? The bug has been there for WEEKs, VERY obvious after a couple of clicks in any standard LR Classic workflow. Are you kidding us???

Facts?

The fact is that you are an N of ONE, Andrew. You not seeing the bug isn't the same thing as the bug being "rare." That is the fact, here, which you seem completely unable to understand. You not seeing the bug means only that you--ONE PERSON--does not see it. By the "evidence" you're providing (that you, personally, don't see it) the bug might well be the most common one Adobe's ever shipped, and the "rare" case is that it is not seen.

I just want the software I'm paying for to work. And yes, Andrew, the software not working IS a fact that is ruining my day.

Geezus.

You are not being cool, here. Not at all.

I'm sorry the facts have ruined your day. 

Facts are actually quite cool and useful, but in todays world, I can recognize why some can't accept them. 

So stick with additional facts when posting, WHO called you a lier and where?

 I would appreciate Andrew, if you could post a video/screenshot of LR10.1.1 with Library preview in different zoom states.

And you'd end up with a video in sRGB color gamut, defeating the purpose of a color managed wide gamut display that on this end, behaves with Library previews as it always has.

Who called you a liar exactly where Mark? Do provide a link. 

You are seeing a difference because of a bug. It doesn't show up for everyone and in fact, relatively few of the installed base, and NONE of the pre-release testers saw it, myself included. Absolutely NO, zero, nada issue on this end, with a Mac, Big Sur, a wide gamut display. 

No one is lying, some are experiencing a rare bug. Nothing more.

Why are you calling me a liar, Andrew Rodney?

I'm seeing a difference. Not "may" see it. Am seeing it. And the color shift isn't subtle. It's huge. It's similar, in fact, to the shift that occurs when you look at a ProphotoRGB image in a web browser that mistakenly defaults it to sRGB. Skin tones literally turn shades of green. Not "subtly" green. Vegetable green.

Are the multiple videos posted, here, documenting this obvious, significant color shift also lies? Are they doctored? Come on.

A working library mode--i.e., one in which people in my portraits aren't GREEN--would help me get work done. It would allow me to make at least some level of culling / managing / collecting decision around color. Isn't that the purpose of the library module? Why don't you want that for me or for the other people, here, who've complained, even if it doesn't happen to affect you, personally?

If it were peak wedding season in an healthy world, this room would be deafeningly loud with complaints. Wedding photographers need a functional library module. So do I.

Can you see your way to letting us have that, please?

"This looks more like an issue where a standard gamut image is represented as a wide gamut photo ( limited color reproduction)."

What is a 'standard gamut image'? Doesn't matter actually, any image, with an embedded ICC profile will preview correctly under bug free color management behavior.

This looks more like an issue where a standard gamut image is represented as a wide gamut photo ( limited color reproduction). I used to have issues on my previous computer with wide gamut screen. I had to run monitor in Adobe RGB mode to have an accurate sRGB color space represented because my system at that point could not output wide AdobeRGB, just sRGB. When I set the monitor in sRGB mode it desaturated all the colors, so in order for it to show the full color range available I had to set it to Adobe RGB.
