Lightroom Classic 14.4: Arrow key changes Filmstrip selection but preview doesn't update
Issue: In both the Develop and Library modules, using the left/right arrow keys sometimes changes the selected thumbnail in the Filmstrip, but the main preview does not update accordingly.
Provide Lightroom Classic version: Lightroom Classic version 14.4 [Camera Raw 17.4]
Provide OS and version: macOS Sonoma v. 14.7.5 (23H527)
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Open Lightroom Classic and go to either the Develop or Library module.
- Use the left or right arrow keys to move through the photos.
- Occasionally, the thumbnail selection in the Filmstrip changes, but the preview stays stuck on the previous image, especially when the image has undergone adjustments.
- Pressing the arrow key again forces the preview to refresh and show the correct image. Once the correct image is displayed, I can then go back (or forward, depending on which arrow key was initially pressed) and see the proper image preview as expected.
Expected result: The preview should always update immediately to match the selected thumbnail in the Filmstrip when navigating with arrow keys.
Actual result: The preview sometimes fails to update, leading to a mismatch between the selected thumbnail in the Filmstrip and the displayed image until the arrow key is pressed again.
This behavior occurs both with and without "Soft Proof" enabled.
