Bridge 2023 issues

Hi, I have installed a new Bridge and unfortunately the changes made to it make my earlier workflow very difficult compared to the previous version:

 

- Enter works like a cursor in the content panel instead of opening files

 

- preview colors of photos (all types of files) are completely different than displayed in PS. I tried to change the color spaces of the monitors, but it only introduced chaos and I don't know how to go back to the previous settings

 

- enlarging the size of the thumbnaili using ctrl + scroll does not work, and the magnifying icon under the panel, e.g. "content", overlaps other icons if it is squeezed, making it impossible to use it

 

- the overall layout is worse in my opinion and it cannot be adjusted to my requirements and habits

 

I wanted to go back to the older version, but then the cooperation with the new PS does not work (e.g. image processor) and I think I will have to downgrade the PS to the previous version as well, so these new updates do not make much sense to me.

 

Do other users have it too?

    Yes my Ctrl no longer works for icon scaling which is REALLY irritating as I use that constantly, and the scaling while seeming like a great idea is horribly implimented - smallest is a tiny bit too small, but going one notch up makes text too large and poorly rendered with a blurry effect.

     

    My icons are rendering correctly though - I was having a mismatch issue in the old bridge which was either solved by reprofiling or the new bridge - (did both in the last 24h)

      I agree with the font assessment.  At long last, I'm very happy with the density improvements in this new version, as I felt some of the older verstions had too much unused space on the screen.  Having said that, there really isn't a reason to have such a small font on a 4K monitor unless the padding between rows also shrinks.  This tiny font works great in the folders navigation pane (minimal padding), but in file details mode, you have to have virtually no icon to increas the density.  My advice would be to make size 2 just a touch bigger than size 1.  I haven't even looked at size 3 or 4, as they would be of no value, with the number of files I have.

      Re Bridge vers 13.0.0, I am also having big problems with the Metadata panels displaying incorrect text when it has been edited,amongst other things. They have ruined what was a good programme.
      I have now reverted back to Bridge vers 12.0.3, which is working perfect with the new PS vers 24.0.0

        @derekl88273024 Can you please elaborate on the issue you are facing?

         

        Can you please provide the following details:

        • What steps are you taking when you are facing this issue?
        • What is the expected behaviour?
        • Does the issue gets fixed if you come back to the same asset after switching to another one?
        • Does it occur on any particular file type? 

         

        Any other important detail that you can provide will also be helpful in recreating the issue at our end.

        Thanks.

        Another strange thing I noticed - each time you press the spacebar to see the preview on the full screen, the views of the same picture are multiplied in the "preview" window, jak na przykładzie

            I have this same problem. I use batch process to rename lots of files. The process seems to run and I get a "completed" message the renamed files are not there. I've tried everything to fix this including deleting preferences and blah blahh blahhh. Obvious this version of Bridge is badly flawed. Also, if I try to create a new workflow you can not add "task details." 

            Horrible update. I went back to the previous version which is the intel version for Mac. That is something I almost never do. 

            Mac Studio running Monterey12.6.
