Panels Disappear when minimizing Bridge 9.1.0.338 - Windows 10

[Cyticre]

With Bridge 9.1.0.338 on Windows 10 1809:

The error occurs when I minimize Bridge whether it is fullscreen or not, and then bring it back to view, the panels on the left and right sides disappear. Here is a screen capture of the error: Adobe Bridge Bridge 9.1.0.338 Panels Error on Vimeo. The error does not occur on the previous version and does not happen when I revert back to the previous version of Bridge.

Anyone else having this error?

I would assume yes.

But I would assume its going to take time.

It happens to a small subset of systems out there.

Care needs to be taken not to break something else.

Not what you want to hear, but we can only hope it gets fixed soon.

Still having this problem with the latest Bridge 11.0.0.83

HP Zbook 15 G5 w/ HP 27er monitor

Windows 10 latest build 10/25/20

Even a keyboard shortcut for reset temporarily?

Sorry to hear you are still experiencing the problem Roberto,

I was just coming in to say that the latest update seems to have fixed the problem for me...

[jbm007]

You know you just jinxed yourself ....................

[Resu Pohsotohp]

Haha, maybe, I just realized that I never checked it on my laptop either...oops.

So yeah, just tested my laptop and the problem still exists there.Everything updated...

For reference, my laptop is Lenovo P1 Gen2 [15.6"/4k]. Desktop monitor is a Lenovo P32u-10 [32"/4K]

Adobe this is a issue with the workspacce UI as it scales down to 15" monitors and smaller.

The fact that he has a secondary monitor is probably mute.

Matter of fact if he could check to see if it happens without the monitor connected.

I have two Dell laptops a 13" and a 15" and both have the same issue.

I know someone who has a 15" Leveno laptop and it happens to him.

Could be the re write of the manufacturers video driver not sure.

Have not had time to check this latest release.

I am still having this problem on my fully updated XPS 13 from Dell (3840x2440 resolution). Adobe, why don't you buy one of these computers and just try it?

All I have to do is minimize bridge and then maximize it and my sidebar minimizes to the side.  In my case, it is only the left side panel. 

bridge version is 11.0.0.83

[Roberto Gardener]

For me both the panels on left and right in the default essentials view close. My current workaround is to not minimize, I just alt/tab between apps and I'm ok.

[Resu Pohsotohp]

Still happening with the latest Bridge update (11.0.1.19)...

[pekkap39049305]

Same here. Bridge is pretty much useless as it resets the workspace everytime you move between apps. Resetting doesn't help at all. 

[jbm007]

Probably will not get fixed.

Manufacturer laptop drivers are mainly to blame.

Can't you save a workspace UI and then when it does happen just select the workspace UI you use all the time?

BTW as noted:

Actually just selecting the saved workspace doesn't help. It hides all panels within that selected workspace and "reset workspace" is what brings my own workspace back. So if there was a possibility to have keyboard shortcut for "reset workspace" it could almost solve the problem.  

[jbm007]

Does F5 work?

[pekkap39049305]

No. Only "Window --> Workspace --> Reset workspace"  does the trick.

Bug still exists. Adobe Bridge 11.1.1.185. Laptop DELL XPS 13 3200x1800. Side panels collapse after restoring minimized Bridge window. Tab key restores them.

I have had the same problem for over a year. I have been searching for fix. I only recently came across this string showing others with the same problem. I did the reset of the Workspace several times but it is annoying to fix my settings. I found that I can drag the panels from the left and right to put them back in place. But they disappear every time I go back to the app when I am not using it for a few minutes. Hopefully Adobe finds a solution soon.

I've been having this issue for over a year. After the latest update it was fixed. Then today while using photoshop, photoshop crashed because of GPU error. I had bridge open at the time and when maximized the problem was back. SO FRUSTRATING. Also, I import my photos with bridge and it used to remember my settings. It would have my last save location for import. Now it forgets and I have to do it every time.

[Resu Pohsotohp]

I installed the lastest version today after a fresh install of Windows 11 on my laptop. The problem still exists on my end...

[brianc44053509]

Just to clarify one thing on my problem. The panels don't actually disappear. What happens is the content panel expands and covers everything else. If I go to the edge on either side I can pull the panel edges and the other panels are under it.

[DRGSEA]

That is correct.  They shrink on both sides.   I can drag them out again.  Very annoying.
