Preview image in the module development temporarily turning very dark during loading.

After the last LR update, when I'm in the develop module and click on a thumbnail, the image in the main window normally displays for a few seconds, then turns very dark for a few seconds, then finally appears back to normal.


This only happens with each image all the time, and even with the same image, it only happens every time (about 90% of the time, however).  Sometimes if I then click on another image, then go back to the first, it is not black at all.  Also, while most of the images turn VERY dark; some just dim.  The coincidence is strange.


I guess it's just a load issue (although there is sometimes no message "loading" Golden spinning-wheel) and it isn't a huge problem, but it's annoying and it slows down my work flow.


When importing, I select "build 1:1 previews." I take pictures with my Nikon RAW and RAW + jpg with my Fujis and it comes up with all these files, as well as saved PSD files. Yet once, it is not arrived before the last update.


Is this some kind of memory with LR problem or a problem with the catalogue?

Hi etherize,.

Please turn off the graphics processor in the Lightroom preferences.

Open Lightroom

Go to Lightroom preferences in the Edit menu

Click the performance tab

Deselect the graphics processor

Restart Lightroom

Let us know if that helps.

  • Size of the image in the Module Development vs. explore

    I'm taking a 17 MB in LR CC DNG file and export to PS CC or NIK software for editing. I set the preferences of external changes as follows:
    Export as TIF, 1998 ADOBE RGB, 600 pixels.  When I go on save the file to the NIK Software or PS CC the file size is reduced in a 5 MB file that is unacceptable for printing (for example the grain of the image is an exaggeration).  The grain was correct in 17 file DNG LR megabyte but the 5 megabytes of unusable files.

    Someone asked if the same thing that happens if I go to PS CC and save it as a PSD file:

    So I worked the image initially as a DNG file and exported for PS CC and made some minor changes as suggested, and that's what I found:

    Get go and open a particular photo in LR and the press 'I' for more information, it shows a megapixel of only 2.8 million pixels (psd).  When I go to display the same image by selecting "(afficher dans l'Explorateur-j'utilise un PC) and right click for the properties the megapixel appear as 36 megapixel (psd)."  A person in a forum said that LR can be emphasized the wrong file but I do not understand why this would be the case because there is only a single file.  Could LR doesn't point to a 'preview' of the vice photo version the original somehow?  Why LR show me in the library module or develop a reduction of the size, and then when I go and look at LR said the photo where in Explorer it shows me a much larger file size?

    This is driving me crazy.

    Thanks in advance.

    I guess that my case that from 16 bit to 8 bit TIFF JPEG was much more to cut the size of the file in two (i.e. 17 megs TIFF in 2.8 MB JPEG).

    I realize that you did not create a jpg file (at least this isn't what you've posted screenshots of) but a PSD. And this isn't 2.8 MB, but 2.8 megapixel (MP). Megapixels is the number of pixels in an image (see post #1) - MB is the size of the file.

    Once again, I invite you to read which is a digital image?

    It is absolutely necessary to understand the difference between the two when it comes to digital images.

    I do not have the original file to DNG. It is an image that I took years ago.  Regarding the 'sharpness on the export", I got the default value set for this parameter.

    According to your original message, your source file in Lightroom. is a DNG.

    If this is not the case, what kind of file you start with?

    To be able to see the problem of grain, you have screenshots of the original (any file that is) post at 1:1, including the details pane and the exported file (which became more grainy), also at 1:1.

    So far, you have posted only a screenshot which really is 1:1, and it is unclear whether it is the original, or the exported image reimported into Lightroom.

    Regarding output sharpening, I don't know which is the default setting. If you choose export to LR even once, it should still be on the setting you used last. You export, or have you used edit in Photoshop? If you used Edit in PS, no sharpness is added, with the exception of any sharpening you applied to develop.

    I'll send the images to print for the first time, and that's how I discovered the spectacular evolution of the size of the files.

    What you should be concerned about is the pixel dimensions and allow without print size enlargement.

    This image will print at 6,387 x 4.79 inches at 300 dpi. (divide the pixel with 300 dimensions for dimensions in inches)

    If this is the case, since some printing companies that I send my images via the internet only take JPEGs must I send my images for businesses that also accept TIFF files to maximize the spectrum of color/quality of my images and also to reduce the amount of grain in my images (i.e. the TIFF converted to 8-bit)?

    Most of the images printed fine of a maximum quality jpg, but there are cases where a TIFF file will print better. If you want to be on the safe side, use TIFF. Send files from 8-bit to the printer, but always edit 16 - bit and convert 8 - bit as the last step. Do this on a double, then you will always have the 16-bit file if you want to edit it further.

    (1) on the other questions regarding sending the images to printers, can I use the Pro Photo setting... the menu pop up in LR CC suggests that to do this in the menu Preferences.

    Most of the printers want files in the sRGB color space, some could use Adobe RGB. Find out what they want.

    You can edit in ProPhoto, but the file you send to the printer should be sRGB or Adobe RGB.

    (2) my workflow has me usually start LR CC.  When you work between LR CC and CC Photoshop must I send files back to PS CC as TIFF files to keep as much as possible of the resolution?

    Yes, use 16 bit TIFF.

  • No image in the module development with 4400 active

    Intel i5-4210u with intel HD grafics with Lightroom CC 4400: no photo displayed in the active when development acceleration of 4400 HD module: if I disable acceleration 4400: the image is displayed. I use the latest version of the driver intel and LR 6.01. Any advice is welcome

    seems the solution: just a quick note to all the world using a GPU of HD4400 Intel (or) - I found that I need to Turn Off the conservative morphological Anti-Aliasing in section 3D of the Intel Graphics Control Panel to get rid of the blue square in the develop module problem.

  • Blue placeholder covers the selected image when in the Module development only

    Hello world!  Today, I applied the update to Lightroom CC to my creative cloud subscription.  At the opening of the CC in Lightroom, I improved catalogue existing images to the new file format.  But when in the develop Module, I am unable to view the selected image because it is covered with a blue placeholder? When in the library Module, I can see and change the image, but not when I'm in the develop Module.  Can you tell why this is please?  Thank you!

  • Preview image in the dialogue window open (Photoshop CS6)

    Hello

    We had an opportunity to see the preview of the images in the dialog open Photoshop CS5 file, but in the new version of CS6 there is not this possibility. Should I forget about this option and use the Mini Bridge?

    Just for clarity:

    What we're talking about being absent from Photoshop CS6 is the preview at the bottom of the dialog box that was there in Photoshop CS5 and earlier versions:

    That's what you see now with Photoshop CS6:

    They are two operating system dialog boxes.  It's just that Adobe has completed dialog box to add additional features found in Photoshop CS5 and previous dialog boxes and which has been deleted for some unknown reason.  Note that they have NOT removed all breast augmentation - this little box of sequence of images [] is not provided by Windows.

    -Christmas

    [MODERATOR] Mark this message as correct because it perfectly illustrates the problem. This topic is discussed further here: Photoshop: no preview of the image on the open dialog box in CS6
