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.

I've spent a bit more time on this and it only occurs in Library mode. The colours in library mode desaturate when zoomed. The colours between normal view and zoom mode in Develop appear OK.

I have tried with and without GPU activated and have tried a different colour profile and neither makes any difference. Got no confidence at all now in the colour I apply to my images. When it this going to be resolved please?

I have exactly the same issue. Using a MacBook Pro 2019 running Big Sur and LR 10.1. The colours in the zoomed preview are desaturated compared to the thumbnail or standard view. Which is correct...? Any idea when this is going to be resolved? I see it was reported well over a month ago and there are no new updates at present for LR.

Do you guys even test your software on Mac? How could such obvious simple bug creep into release? Unbelievable!

Happens to me too! Clean install Big Sur on MacBook Pro, clean fresh install of Lightroom Classic today. Color desaturated and VERY different in Loop Zoomed view vs 100% Loop view or Develop view. In Develop zoom view functions normally. This started happening after last update 10.1 I guess. Adobe please FIX SOON, this is VERY ANNOYING!

Same issue for me. I'm almost certain this started with the upgrade to Big Sur. Zooming to 100% in Loupe View shows different (less saturated) colors than the develop module, and when fitting the image to the view in loupe mode.

iMac Pro (2017)

MacOS 11.1

Lightroom Classic 10.1

I'm having the same issue after updating my Macbook Pro 13" to Big Sur. Colors change when you zoom in in the Library module, but not in the Develop module. This is with previews that were created before and after the update.

I can confirm that I am having the same issue on my device as well. MBP 16" Big Sur 11.1, BenQ 3220U 4k monitor. It is only occurring for me when I am in library mode however, it doesn't occur while I'm in develop mode.
