Hi, I use Lightroom CC newest version. When I want to work on a picture it partly disappears under the fold-out screen when I want to start editing or cropping. . Therefore I can not see the cropping marks on the right side of the picture. What 's wrong. Thank you for your help Piet Hein van der Hoek Amsterdam .

'Lightroom CC' is a name that has not been in use for years, so I assume you mean Lightroom Classic. When you talk about a 'fold-out screen', do you perhaps mean the right panel with the edit tools? You can automatically show/hide this panel and then it may move over the image like this:

If that is indeed what you mean, then right-click on the small triangle at the far right of the panel. In the contextual menu that comes up, choose 'Manual', not one of the Auto-hide options.

Now you can click on this triangle to show or hide the panel manually, and when you do that the image will automatically become a little smaller so it will fit in the remaining space of the window.

If that is not what you meant, then please post a screenshot to illustrate your problem. A picture says more than a thousand words...

Hey, @Piet Hein5E82. Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I'll need more info to help you figure this out. Please share the system info from Lightroom Classic from Help > System info > Copy and paste into a text document > Upload and attach here.

As primary steps, try this:

Unplug additional displays & use only one by default.

Go to Lightroom > Edit > Preferences > Performance > Use Graphics Processor > Set it off if it is on Custom or Auto. If this shows any differences, please check this article to troubleshoot further: https://adobe.ly/3uYiJo4

Let me know how it goes. Thanks!

Dear @Sameer K,

I have Lightroom and not Lightroom Classic. For example, if I expand the crop menu in the right menu, it will partly cover the photo. (see attached photo) The expanded menu is much too large and this also applies to other operations from that menu, it always expands over the photo. How can I adjust that?

You did not attach a photo. If you want to do that, then please do not use Attach, but use Insert, so the image can be viewed in the message (like my screenshots). You do this by using this button:

How large (in pixels) is your monitor? I tried to reproduce what you see on my Mac, and I can do that but only if I make the Lightroom window very small. And if then it only happens when I resize the window. As soon as I click on the Crop tool again, the image shrinks and is fully visible again.
