Question

Lightroom Classic CC 7.3 and ACR 10.3 very slow presets previews

In general I like new update of Lightroom Classic. Idea that when I put mouse over preset name I see not only small but also big preview is good.

But generating big preview for my big monitor takes too much time. I want to scroll mouse over lots of presets and see fast previews. But right now I put mouse and wait, then move and wait, and again. Finally I want to turn off this big previews, I'm happy enough with fast previews in navigator, but I can't do this. Please make some checkbox in settings to turn it off. Or make big previews faster generation. For example with some increasing resolution algorithm. Like low details and very fast at first time, but if mouse is staying at this preset then more resolution and more detailed preview generation.

Set it to List View. You do that where it says Grid, and or Large and or List.

Sorry but not correct. I'm talking about Presets list that is on the left side. And you are talking about Profile selection that is on the right side.

I have a lot of presets. And when I move mouse over them I see previews. In previous version of Lightroom I can see previews only in Navigator. But in latest version also main big image is changing to show how this preset looks. And this big main image generation making process very slow. Like 0.2 sec for navigator preview, and 1-2 second for main image preview. This is very uncomfortable and I just want to turn it off for big image.

Someone else had the same concern the other day. This is a user to user forum. There's another forum where the developers monitor much more closely, and it was suggested that a comment should be posted there where they might see and consider such a feature request.
