Questions

I have Bridge 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021 on my iMac and each takes up more than a GB. can i delete the previous once? 

Hat sonst noch jemand das Problem dass die Maus im Fenster Favoriten total langsam scrollt? Man muss richtig kurbeln damit man in der Ordnerstruktur weiterkommt. Ich hab das Problem seit Bridge 13.0.4 und nachdem ich jetzt wieder die Version 13.0.3 installiert habe verhält sich das Fenster wieder normal.

Keep getting this error on trying to open bridge and it crashes. I've tried un-installing and re-installing but that does not work. Adobe please fix this bug! 

I know that I can choose View > Items in Subfolders, but that isn't what I want.Sometimes I want to look at separate folders at the same time, and was wondering if I could open more than one instance of the Bridge application.

I took workspaces from Bridge (in App Data > Adobe > Bridge 2023), put then on a flash drive and copied to same space in new computer.They don't show up in Window > Workspaces.What to do?

@Mohit Goyal closed comments on the Adobe Bridge Beta is now available (13.0.3.686) topic for some reason or I would have posted there... they mentioned "we are hearing your requests about reintroducing Multiple Bridge windows", but said that's not in the 13.0.3 beta... so I just wanted to confirm that "Multiple Bridge windows" is in fact what people are asking for: the SAME EACT functionality Bridge 12 had (and has had for literally 10+ years before that) with it's "File > New Window" feature (or most of us just press Apple/Command/Control + N on the keyboard). The main difference between 12's "New Window" feature (and every version before for YEARS) is how you get a COMPLETE new Bridge window. You can not only see your thumbnail images, but you can browse the Folder tree on the left, see the metadata panel, etc. etc. etc. – it has absolutely full usability of features.  Bridge 13 completely and utterly butchers this. There is NO "New Window" feature, only a "Mu

The ability to have separate Bridge instances is crucial not only to my workflow, but the workflow every imaging production professional. I know, this has been brought up before. The issue is not resolved until we reclaim the ablilty to: Apply different filters to multiple sets of images and have those controls independently and simultaneously available. Like you can when running multiple instances of Bridge.Have those differently filterable sets available with full controls in separate spaces / windows sets. Like you can when running multiple instances of Bridge. I have multiple clients, and I like to keep each one's notes and assets in their own space. IMO, it's one of the reasons why spaces / window sets exist.Quilckly switch between sets of images with shortcut keys. Like you can when running multiple instances of Bridge.Do this natively on Apple Silicon running Ventura. I understand that multiple content panels was a popular request. Perhaps those of us who rely on

NO NEWS OF ANY KIND OF UPDATE TO FIX THE BLOODY STUPID IDEA THAT SOME IDIOT HAD? PLEASE TELL ME THAT IT WAS ONLY ONE IDIOT AS IT WOULD BE VERY SAD THAT MULTIPLE IDIOTS AT ADOBE THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA.MY WORKFLOW IS DRASTICALLY CHANGED DUE TO THIS ASSININE MOVE. I AM NOW BEGINNING TO LOOK INTO ALTERNATIVE SOFTWARE. KEEP IN MIND THAT THERE IS COMPETITION WITH PROBABLY LESS IDIOTS MAKING STUPID DECISIONS LIKE REMOVING BRIDGE'S ABILITY TO DO MULTIPLE WINDOWS.YES, YES ALL CAPS. I'M ANGRY. WITH ANY LUCK THE ONLY CASE OF TRAUMATIZATION WILL INVOLVE THE IDIOT MANAGER(S) WHO APPROVED THIS BLOODY STUPID IDEA.Getting the point, Adobe?  FIX THE BLOODY PROBLEM.

I have seen Adobe answer I dont want seperate panels open I need to refer to a previous folder to make changes to another 2022 and previous versions did this Has this been fixed thankyou 

Can we open multiple Windows in Bridge 2023 .....????? 

No Choice but to Downgrade Bridge to 12.0.3 As too many bugs and changes done to the latest version (13.0), especially give up New Window option for a content tab, so as many other problematic issues while working, this is the first time I'm unable to use an updated application by Adobe. I can't believe that whoever thought that this update will serve the users is someone who works massively with Bridge.   Shlomit  

after many months of not updating I installed the latest bridge v13.01 and EXTREMELY disappointed. It is no longer willing to open multiple folders in separate windows, command “W” no longer closes a window. Clicking the close window button will now quit the app requiring the app to relaunch EVERY time I open a new folder. I’ve been unable to find a preference setting to fix this. Am I missing something or is adobe this far out of touch with how people need the software to function? Please tell me there is a way to fix this, Thank you.

Really? I have to explain it? Ok, I'll give it a go.What a BLOODY STUPID IDEA.There.

Adobe PLEASE restore multiple windows option. Professional Photographers & Retouchers have established workflows that rely on features that have been used for years. If Adobe feels they have a better option, then at least offer Multiple Windows (Comm-N) as an OPTION. Auto makers don't switch the position of the brake pedal with the gas pedal. Some workflow features are that basic.I was a beta tester for Photoshop 1.0. I'm all for new features, but this deletion was not a step forward.

Bridge 13.0.1.583 has removed the ability to have 2 bridge windows open.  Please add this feature back.   I understand that Adobe has added tabs to Bridge windows; which I'm sure is great for some people.  But the tabs don't let you browse 2 folders side by side to visually compare them.  So please keep the tabs, but also allow users to press Command N or to right click and ask for a folder to be opened in a new Bridge Window too. Thank you.

I use command N, to open new window a lot. For 1st time ever not working ; anyone have any ideas on that? thanks.  Mac

Hi!! I use Bridge daily and always have had 2 - 4 Bridge windows open so that I could easily move files from folder to folder after viewing them. However with the new Bridge update there no longer exists the "File, New Window" option.  After several hours, ok a few days...., of toying around and looking through discussion boards I couldn't find any information. Does anyone know how to have more than one Bridge window open with the new update? Thanks in advance.

In Bridge I go through images and those I want to keep I label them I press no 6 and that should mark with a red label but this does not work well and most times it does not wark at all I use windows 11 now but had the same problem in 10

Hallo,ich nutze inDesign CC 18.3, arbeite auf PC mit Win11 und einer Serverbasierten Datensstruktur. Ich habe mir einen Workflow erstellt in dem es mir Bilder- verkleinern soll- Stapelumbenenung - extra Ordner abspeichern soll Sobald ich aber dann den Workflos mit Bilder (egal ob es nur zwei oder mehrere) starte, erscheint das Dialogfeld mit dem Workflow-Fortschritt aber darüber hinaus passiert nichts weiter.Es bleibt bei "0 von x" Bildern, egal wie lange ich warte. Der Unterordner in dem die geänderten Bilder abgespeichert werden sollen, wird noch erstellt aber keinerlei Bilder neue abgelegt.  Kann mir bitte jemand helfen? 

Suddenly began to get Unknown System Error, on relaunch, got my last screen complete with active thumbnails/previews and all panels poplated. Clicking a thumbnail yields multiple flickering boxes. Read support document remedies, nothing special to lose so uninstalled Bridge, reinstalled from CC.Launching new Bridge yields incompletely populated error box; on dismissing box or clicking menu item, Bridge folds-up and disappears. Repeating uninstall cycle produces same result. I'm locked-out.Thanks for any solution a point-n-click-guy can perform without breaking-out in hives.  

For 2 weeks or so I have not been able to open images in Bridge. I even went back 2 versions and the issue persists. I am using Mac Mini with M1 chip.As soon as I try to open my raw images a watch or clock icon appears and then the spinning color wheel. The only way to get rid of it is to force quit. My computer OS is up to date, I have rebooted a few times and I reinstalled the latest Bridge update so I am at a loss.Is this a known bug?

I am using the following to add metadata, the metadata displays in XN View MP, however I am not seeing the option to display XMP in Bridge. (IPTC, GPS, etc. are in the panel but no XMP) I must be missing an option.  Here is the code used to generate the metadata. import pyexiv2 img = pyexiv2.Image('xmptest.jpg') xmp = img.read_xmp() print(xmp) pyexiv2.registerNs('abc', 'abc') img.modify_xmp({ 'Xmp.abc.valstring': 'xnviewtest', 'Xmp.abc.valfloat': 1.234, 'Xmp.abc.valint': 434}) img.close() # -- img = pyexiv2.Image('xmptest.jpg') xmp = img.read_xmp() print(xmp)

Is it possible to show the background color of the user interface instead of the transparency mesh for thumbnails?

XN View MP allows the user to set the thumbnail dimensions explictly, is that possible? (e.g. 128x64, etc.).Zoom features appears to be sqaure format only.
