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.

@Rikk Can you confirm the version number with the fix, please?

Updates to Lightroom Classic and the Lightroom Ecosystem products for Desktop, Mobile and Web were released today and contain a fix for this issue.

Please refresh your Creative Cloud application and install your update when it becomes available. Thank you for your patience.

I am simply here to share that I am having the exact same issue.  If I View a file in the "fit" size in Library module, and then zoom in or out, the colors go haywire.  However, in the Develop module, everything looks fine.

This is a Screenshot of a section of a photo not zoomed in:

This is a screenshot of the same general section on zoom in the Library module:

This is the same section in the Develop module (colors like the first one):

Please advise on how to resolve.  Thanks.

Same problem here... been bugging me for a while now and can't work out how to solve this. Colour changes / goes flat upon zooming into the image. 

Non zoomed image looks correct just like original file. 

Zoomed version incorrect.

Being that Photoshop just released a new version today, I'm going to guess that LR/LRC are not that far behind, and somewhere in this thread adobe acknowledged that they know about this.  I'm going to assume that it's fixed in the upcoming, probably any day now, LRC release.

Is there a recommended work-around for this right now?

No and sort of yes. The only accurate preview of your image data is in the Develop module at 1:1 or greater. Always been this way. Develop uses a different preview architecture than all other modules. 

If you are viewing and editing in Develop, all is fine even with this bug. 

If you are viewing and using Quick Develop in Library, not so much until the bug is fixed.
