Question

Q mode - AI content aware remove / healing / etc - overlay / selection NOT showing

Hey is anyone else having issues the Q mode, where you cannot see what you're selecting (it's not showing the selected area)? It worked yesterday, it's always worked, really, but it's not working today and I can't figure out if it's something I did or if something new (a bug) got introduced. 

 

Here is what I mean - see Loom quick vid - https://www.loom.com/share/42fbe71c1bcc4e6e8518966a263e0c66

 

Is this a bug or is this some toolbar setting? It's making it really hard to work when you're trying to edit out something intricate or specific, with defined edges.

Hmmmm, weird. I restarted my computer. Re-opened Lightroom, and when I went to use Q it gave me some super brief yellow triangle error message. It was so quick I couldn't read the full thing - message read: "Some IE content aware fetures might now work.... (couldn't read the rest)". Message showed up in upper right in Q mode, either above or below opacity, can't remember exactly. And then... it started working again - so this fixed itself, looks like.

And now it's not working again... Anyone else having trouble with this?
