In the latest version of Lightroom Classic, the ability to edit values in the develop panel while simultaneously seeing RGB values under the histogram (while hovering over the photo) is broken.

This is core to my workflow, an absolutely necessary feature I use every single time I’m editing photos.

 

In the Develop Module, under let’s say the “Basic” adjustments panel, one should be able to adjust values (such as Exposure, Contrast, Highlights, Shadows, Whites, Blacks, etc.) while hovering the mouse cursor over a section of the photo (in the Loupe View) and see RGB values changing under the histogram.

In the latest version, the RGB values are no longer displayed under the histogram while those values are being adjusted. For example, I click the number next to the ‘Highlights’ slider and move my cursor over to a white part of the image. When I press the up arrow on my keyboard to increase the value of that number, the RGB values under the histogram *should* be displayed and also increasing. Instead, they are not displayed at all.

I have downgraded to the previous version and the program’s behavior returns to expected.

 

This is a brand new computer, fresh win 11, AMD Ryzen 7 7700X; 32GB RAM; NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060Ti (16GB)

 

*I already opened a support ticket for this which was closed after the agent never got back to me - this is the place the second support agent sent me to submit a bug report.

**And to be clear, this happens under other adjustment panels (Tone Curve, Color Grading) as well.

    You should post this in the Lightroom Classic forum. This is Photoshop.

     

    FWIW I’m not having this issue - and yes, this is something I constantly rely on when working in Lightroom Classic. Except for i7 11700 CPU, my hardware is pretty similar to yours, also RTX 5060 Ti.

     

    You’ll be asked for the full Help > System Info, so include that.
