Cannot Save Workspace Changes

New Here ,
Jun 14, 2020 Jun 14, 2020

I have an issue with Bridge 2020 release 10.0.04 where I cannot fully save workspace changes, even as a new custom workspace. For example
In the Preview workspace I first shrink the left side panels so as to be invisible. Next I shrink the content panel until there is a only a single vertical column of thumbnails visible, and I set the grid to locked. Now I have a really nice big preview panel. I save this arrangement as a custom workspace that I call Large Preview.
If I switch to another workspace, then come back to my custom Large Preview workspace, the layout is changed. The width of the content panel is increased and now I have three columns of thumbnails, which I don't want.
This is a simple but annoying problem. I don't remember this in earlier versions of Bridge but to be honest I haven’t used Bridge in quite a while, just coming back to it now
Any ideas?

Hi Ian,

 

Just to make sure I'm understanding things correctly here, after moving things around for your workspace are you going up to the Windows menu and selecting "New..." to formally create that workspace?

 

Let me know,

Bridge version 10.1.1.116

I have the same problem.  Set up the workspace how I want, for example, remove the columns like Dimensions, Resolution and Color Profile from the Contents list view in the Essentials workspace, save as a new workspace, but then when I open that workspace, those columns reappear.

Sounds like you need to reset your Prefs. Please try this:

 

quit Bridge

Thanks for the fast response !  But no, that did not work.  Yes I get the startup menu to reset the preferences/workspaces, and did that, which reverted the screen background to black ( I normally use a white screen background ), but the workspace1 I created with the columns deleted still shows the same layout, with the 3 columns back as in the default Essentials layout.  Deleted those columns again, created a new layout ( workspace2 ) and selected that, but the columns reappear.  I am a new user ( although very familiar with computers ), so maybe just missing something obvious, but I cant see what.

I am having the exact same issue. I have a PC. I have set up Bridge several times and have saved it as new and given it a name. Works just fine. When I go to PS and do some work, I go back to Bridge and the layout has changed. I click on reset and it goes back to the way I set it up. Something is wrong or I am doing something wrong. Help requested!!
