Camera RAW: Arrow keys to select next image are not working after using zoom function

I open several raw files in Camera raw and click through them using the arrow buttons.
I use the mouse to zoom in to 100% and back out.
Now the arrow buttons don’t work anymore unless I make one extra mouse click into the film stripe area.

One extra click sounds like a minor problem, but when you select hundrets of photos, it gets a lot…

Version: 18.1.1

    Late reply, sorry!

    Apparently the problem fixed itself. Maybe it was just because of an update. I tried again days later and it worked. Wanted to write this here anyway, even if it’s super late. Maybe someone else experiences the same.

    What operating system are you using?

     

    On macOS Tahoe 26.2 with Photoshop 2026 (ps ver 27.3.1) and Camera Raw 18.1.1 I don’t seem to have that issue.

     

    You might try a reset of the Camera Raw preferences:
