P: Navigator preview pane shows wrong photo

This worked for my purposes. I can't speak for the others, but I appreciate your help in solving my problem. Thanks

I just upgraded to LR CC -- I'm with you. I can't believe this hasn't been fixed. I'm reading complaints above from a YEAR ago. I love LR it's an amazing application, but I had no idea how much I used that window until it was taken away. Please fix soon.

Yep! I also have the same problem with LR 6.01 in Win 7. I've used LR since day one, and never had this problem with previous versions.

I can't believe this still hasn't been fixed. Last week I decided to clean install Yosemite. Nothing to do with trying to get rid of this bug! I clean installed Yosemite by formatting the hard drive first. The first thing I did after setup completed was to reinstall Lightroom 5.7 to see if this bug was indeed a bug or something particular to my hardware and software. Well the preview bug showed itself within minutes! Also the same in Lightroom 6.

Certainly lots of people have reported this issue. I've had it now for two years and it's very annoying.

Hi
I have an issue where the image in the navigator does not match the image I am looking at. Even if I click on a diff thumbnail the image updates but not the image in the navigator. I therefore cannot get an Idea of what an image will look like when I scroll over a preset.
Please help.

Thanks for suggesting this workaround -- it works for me!

Is there a way to move the filmstrip to the second screen? I'd like to do this until such time as Adobe permanently fixes the Navigator issue.

Hi Vincent, I sent you an email to either get a video of how to repro or do a screen share. Let me know if you got it.

Well, yeah, that "fixes" it, because mouse tracking is the issue to begin with. Disabling the mouse tracking of course makes the issue disappear. But that doesn't solve the issue, that only hides one symptom (that being the preview panel). There are OTHER issues with mouse tracking within LR, too.

What if you change this preference, does that help the behavior become more manageable?

The offer is still available for me to give live demonstrations via something like G+ Hangouts with a detailed explanation as to what is going on. 😉

But yeah, from recent testing I've more or less confirmed that it is a bug in the mouse tracking code, and can now consistently reproduce it 100% of the time with some specific mouse gestures.
