'Lights out' feature is also dimming the actual image?

[clarke40859817]

Hi All,

When using the 'lights out' feature to dim the image surround, it has also starting dimming and blacking out the actual image itself. Does anyone know how to rectify this?

Any help would be hugely appreciated!

Hi there,

That shouldn't be happening as the Lights Out feature should be only dimming the image background(surrounding the image).

Which version of Lightroom Classic are you using and on which operating system? Are you using a secondary monitor to display Lightroom Classic?

Would you mind restoring Lightroom Classic app preferences to default and let us know if the issue still persists? Please refer this article for step by step instructions: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/help/setting-preferences-lightroom.html#restore_preferences_to_def...
