Preview area is flickering dark

Question

Just switched to M2 Macbook pro. I edit colors in lightroom even with graphic design. I keep seeing a preview of my file but the preview looks dark. Then I move the mouse around and it flickers between dark and normal. When I switch off the app it seems to stop. I've tried to screen record this but when I do it stops. I did take a video with my phone though.

On latest Ligthroom classic 12.2.1 Apple M2 mac Ventura 13.3

Hi @fernandop47774060

Thanks for reaching out.

What type of file format are you working with? Does this happen with all the files?

Have you tried disabling the graphics processor?

Try resetting Lightroom Classic's preferences by following this article's second (manual) method: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom-classic/help/setting-preferences-lightroom.html.

Let me know how it goes.

Best,

Ranjisha
