P: Update Adds Bug to exiting Full Screen Preview Mode

The Lightroom 5.2 update added a bug to the Full Screen Preview mode.

Previously, when in Full Screen Preview mode and you hit a quick key to enter a module (rather than exiting by hitting "F") it would simply exit the Full Screen Preview mode and enter said module without changing your screen mode, but now...

Now when I exit with "F" everything is fine, but if I exit with "Esc", "D", "G", or "E" then it takes me OUT of Full Screen and into Normal.

This is incredibly frustrating.

    John, it sounds like you are having a slightly different issue than the issue this report was originally about.

    The issue Michael Rork described was fixed for some of us in 5.4, albeit after a rather long wait.

    I would suggest you open a separate issue for what you're experiencing.

    I see that this is marked as solved when it isn't.

    Lightroom doesn't allow me to exit Full Screen Mode to go to another view. After I initially press the F key to get to full screen mode it won't allow me to get back to other modes. I have to restart LR to get to another view and use LR again. Wish someone would come up with a fix. I am running 5.4

    I can't figure out how to mark this as solved.

    I'm going to start commenting here and posting to the Facebook page every time I use Lightroom and the problem hasn't been updated to "working on".

    I'm still REALLY frustrated this hasn't been fixed. Using Full Screen Preview is an essential part of my workflow and going back and forth between it and gallery mode quickly without having to remember to hit "f" first is tiresome. PLEASE fix this soon! It's been 5 months since I reported the problem and I'm SURE someone at Adobe is annoyed by it as well! Julieanne Kost, doesn't this bug you?

    Same for me - Lightroom 5.3 on MacBook Pro Retina (2013) running OS X 10.9.1

    I confirm it's still not fixed with 5.3. Hey Adobe! This is a huge oversight! At least acknowledge us!
