I work in LR 5 and 6 for a long time. Suddenly my view of a photo is about half the size than usual although my navigatorsetting is at fitt or full. I only get my normal size on 2:1 ! I reset my preferences but that did not help. It happened on the start of LR5 on my IMac Mojave on a collection of photo's size 1280x850 wich always gave me a view of about 80% of the viewing area in both librarie and develop mode.
Can anybody help me to get the normal view back?
Thanks
William

This isn't necessary. You can view an attachment without downloading it by clicking on the Preview box:
This opens the preview window:
Doing so will not download the attachement to your Downloads folder.

It is necessary to use "Insert Photos" instead of providing an attachment. My browser at work will not preview the attachment. Browsers on my tablet or cell phone also won't preview the attachment. My home computer browser will only show the preview if I disable a security feature, which I choose not to do.

I couldn't find any other reports about this misbehavior in this forum or the Using The Community forum, so I recommend you post a bug report about there. I successfully tested the Preview button on four platforms and five browsers, all with default settings.

Some members WILL NOT TRUST ATTACHMENT. it is a trust issue. No matter what reassurances Adobe may give, they do bot trust that an attachment will not be malicious code.

The preview button does not download the attachment. Rather, it sends a JPEG preview to your browser, no different than if the user had inserted the attachment into the text with the camera icon. There is no plausible security issue with this.
You can verify that by clicking the preview button in Chrome, right-clicking the preview image that opens, and doing View Image Info.
dj_paige's issue is different -- the preview button doesn't work for him.

Hé guys, keep this discussion in another topic and try to give a solution to my question.

Does your iMac have a retina screen? It's likely a compatibility bug between the very old LR5 and retina screens on Mojave. If so it will never get fixed as LR5 hasn't been supported for a very long time.

This is not the issue : Lr worked fine since I started working on the new Imac with retina screen. For more than a year everything worked perfect . The question is : why does it all by itself suddenly change the view format ? I did not change anything and use the program just as before with the same OS Mojave, on the same computer. It happens not only in version 5 but also in version 6.

Perhaps I am seeing the screenshot incorrectly, but you are in the Library Module?
So, what happens if you delete the library previews?
hmm, but it also fails in Develop Module. Different preview.

For that image, what does LrC report as resolution?

The image shown in the screenshot is a JPG. Is it possible that you've resized the original and imported back into LrC? You can you check the pixel dimensions in Metadata panel.

That's expected behavior for LR 5 -- Loupe Fit and Fill won't enlarge the photo larger than 1:1. See this feature-request thread of people complaining about it in 2014:
I just tested my LR 5 to verify that's how it behaves. (I don't have LR 6 installed.) In a later version Adobe changed the behavior, not sure when.
Your screenshot is consistent with the LR 5 behavior, showing a 1280 x 850 image displayed on a 5006 x 2672 screen.
