Since 14.3, I notice that Auto Advance was occationally on in Develop mode (which it should not). I have caps lock off, sometimes if i select 5 then 6 (5 star + red label), it will occationally auto advance, which is very annoying.

 

Please fix it...

M1 Mac, LrC 14.3.1

OK, that rules out a longstanding bug with non-Qwerty numeric keypads (e.g. French keyboards).

 

Resetting preferences is what I'd recommend too. That article explains how to restore the original preferences if it doesn't help.


thanks, i think i found the issue. If I use the internal (built-in) keyboard of the Macbook Pro, it does not have this issue. But if I use the external Apple magic keyboard with touch-id (english us layout), it will... super odd.

1. In which language and country are you running LR? 

 

2. Are you typing numbers on the numeric keypad?

Are you sure this isn't caused by an active filter that filters out the image you just tagged?

Well, all I can say is that I have never ever seen this on my Mac, so I doubt it's a bug that Adobe can fix. Maybe you should try resetting your preferences to see if that solves it. Corrupted preferences are known to cause all kinds of unexpected things.

sometimes it will also trigger the bug even if i just give 5 star... I have auto advance option off in Library mode (but i do not think it matters)...
