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'm having the exact same issue. normally starts after sleep or  the screensaver. I have a screen recording of the issue. it's pretty consistent.

While it's appreciated that anything color related as an issue sounds like it could be ICC related - this has literally nothing to do with profiles. It happens regardless of monitor, and regardless of profile set. It has to be a bug within LR - fit to view has a different color cast than zooming in or going to different modules... I also have the same issue.

He is only talking pre-release beta testing, hardly an underground spy colony.

@andrew_rodney, you remain deeply and spitefully unhelpful--whoever you are, whatever your nebulous role is.

Now back to my question, which apparently isn't addressed to you:

Can an actual Adobe spokesperson please tell us when functional library module color--which we are currently paying for--will be shipped to customers who aren't in the super-double-secret @andrew_rodney club?

It's been shipped. To some here, to test.

@andrew_rodney , the only measure determinig whether a problem has been "fixed" is whether that fix has been shipped.

A fix that isn't shipped, that isn't in any customers' hands, isn't a fix. It's a rumor. It's vaporware. This endless gaslighting is exhausting.

Mostly because it's unclear to me who you even are--whether you work for Adobe, or whether you're an unpaid volunteer of some kind, or something else. Are you Adobe's official spokesperson, here?

And geezus, why is that even a question, here? Can't we just have some actual clarity? Can somebody who's actually on Adobe's payroll identify themselves as the source-of-truth and give us a real delivery date? Or is that honestly too much "service" to ask from the $620/year I'm paying for Adobe's "software as a service"? 

You know, Lightroom isn't shareware. It's not a "community project." It's a dozen-year-old commercial brand that nets Adobe hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue. Professional people get paid to develop it and test it, do they not? Where are they? If I wanted to (or had time to) participate in some half-baked volunteer software barn-raising party, I'd be running Darktable or RAW Therapee on Linux. The whole point of paying for Lightroom (and the Creative Cloud) is the service of getting a finished system that works and can be deployed in a professional shop as delivered. 

This is whole thing is both ridiculous and completely unacceptable.

The bug is fixed. But NO ONE here can provide a timeline due to NDAs when you'll get it. . 

There really isn't anything else to say. 

Oh, well OK, one thing; in your current version, the preview in Develop at 1:1 and the same image in Photoshop at 100% should match exactly. So yeah, what happens in Library will be dealt with (has been), but if you are editing images, you really, really should be doing this in Develop since even with the bug fixed, the preview architecture in Develop differs from all the other modules and is and always was, the most accurate preview of the data.

@alan_aubry  The update changed nothing, the color shift is just as bad as it was before, you are imagining things or trying to misinform.

I had no idea it was that bad. There are too many good competitors out there nowadays and, IMO, there's no real reason to stay within the Adobe ecosystem other than the fact that we've already established workflows within it. I'm already in the process of switching over and leaving Adobe since, in the past couple of weeks only, I haven't been able to get a solid answer from anybody.

@andix Can you provide further information regarding the timeline?
