Question

Black screen when I hit F to view full screen

Hi guys

Thank you for reading my post.

I'm using LR Classic V: 14.0.1

When I hit F on my keyboard to view an image in full screen view...I get a black screen. The metadata for the image appears breifly but nothing else just a black screen.

If I close LR and re-open everything is normal ? But the black screen re appears again some time later.

Is this a bug ? Or have I caught something in error ?

Anyone else see this ?

 

Update to my post re Black screen.

ALSO just now... when i click 'Develop' to edit an image, when the Develop screen opens... the space where the image should be is Grey...with no image visible... yet if I click the Grey space... the image appears ? Never done this before... something going on here....

Please post the system information found in the help menu of LrC.

Did you try to deactivate the GPU support?

Graphics drivers are up-to-date (directly from the card manufacturer, not from Microsoft)?
