My loupe tool has been divided into four for some time now, one quadrant the image, another blank solid colour, and the two others are filled with streaks of colour of the adjacent pixels in the image. Screen shot attached. Anyone have this problem? Any solution suggestions?

Macbook pro 2019 15" touchbar, Monterey 12.3.1

Hey Gary_sc, thanks for suggestion. I turned off Graphics Processor under Camera raw preferences, from Auto to Off, but alas to no avail. However that inspired me to explore other hardware/software parameters:

Under Bridge > Preferences > Advanced > Miscellaneous, I unchecked “Use Software rendering”, and Voila! Problem disappeared.

Thanks for the clue!

Ugh, yeah @borealcat, I think I recognize that. You need to go into your Adobe Camera Raw Preferences* and turn off the Graphic Processor. See if that works.

 

It's possible that if you upgrade your OS to Ventura, it might provide updated software for your grapher processor and it might work better, but I cannot promise that.

 

*This is accessed from Bridge's Bridge menu (to the left of the File menu).
