Bridge full screen preview

[mary.conlon@journalism.cuny.ed]

Full-screen preview in bridge is not functioning, the image appears distorted. I am using macOS Catalina. Please, can this be fixed?

Hi Mary,

A screenshot here would help to understand what kind of distortion you are seeing. Also, what kind of image is this: a jpg, raw, tif, psd? You say you are on Catalina, which release and which release of Bridge/ACR are you using?

BTW, you need to log into the forum to send an image. If you try to respond via an eamil, any attached image does not get to the forum. 

Sorry for all the qestions, but it does help narrow down the possible answers.

Hi Gary,

Taking a screenshot actually fixed the screen distortion, momentarily, for some reason. So I took a photo of what it looks like (below).

This is happening with raw and jpg images so far.

I'm using bridge version 9.1.0.338.

Thanks,

Mary

Hi Mary,

Have you tried upgrading to the latest Bridge? 

Bridge and Catalina have a whole bunch of battles going on, a number of which have been fixed in the latest release (but not all). See if that fixes things?

One thing you might try IF updating your Bridge does not solve the problem is to turn off hardware rendering. This would help if the age of your computer is getting on in years.

Let us know...

That worked! Thank you.

Hi Mary,

Delighted that it worked. For my reference, which thing worked? I gave you several options.

Thanks!

Updating to the newer version of bridge worked. I thought I had done so (or that it was set to automatic updates) but I had to actually relaunch the app from the creative cloud updates window.

Ah OK, 

Glad that this worked!

If you'd be so kind as to mark my answer as "Correct Answer" I'd be grateful.

Thanks!

I don't know how to mark your answer as correct. I think it may be because this thread was started as a post instead of a question?
