Bridge CS6 - Preview Panel Zoom level

Greetings-
In using Adobe Bridge CS6 (w/latest updates as of 06/13/2014), when previewing video files, the preview panel will automatically zoom into the video. I've tried resetting the preferences (Holding down control while starting), resetting the workspaces - this has not worked.
I saw in another thread where the author mentioned a "zoom toolbar" but this only refers to the thumbnail panel - NOT the preview panel.

I'm running Bridge CS6 64bit
I'm sorry, am a Mac user and rarely use movies. Although a .MOV file shows without problems in my preview window. And your screenshot only shows part of the workspace, maybe try again with the whole screen and the preview window  filled with zoom?
Try another workspace and even try to reset preferences again, sometimes it needs more then once to solve a problem. And Windows is very critical for the use of correct graphic card drivers but that is out my league I'm afraid.

  • Bridge CS6 Previews of raw-files have bad (pixelated) quality after editing.

    I'm having problems with using Bridge for browsing my pictures. Preview quality of edited raw (nef) files is terrible. It looks like a very low quality jpeg. The untouched NEF's are fine, and saving the edited NEF as PSD also gives a perfect preview.
    Purging Cache doesn't work.
    I'm using:
    Operating System: Windows 7 64-bit Version: 6.1 Service Pack 1
    Adobe Bridge CS6 5.0.2.4 x64
    Camera Raw 7.3.0.71
    Adobe Photoshop Version: 13.0.1  x64
    2x Monitor 1920 x 1200
    Photo's made with Nikon D800E (7360 x 4912 px)
    See screenshots of settings. Any Suggestions?

    What I find frustrating is:
    1. Raw previews look like crap compared to the file itself.
    2. Its possible to generate decent previews by a complicated purging-process.
    I can imagine you are frustrated.
    There are two differences on my set up so I can't check, first I use a Mac and you are on Windows and I use Canon and you Nikon.
    However it should not result in this much visible flaws in the preview.
    There can be a lot of cache files but Camera Raw Cache is something completely different then Bridge Cache.
    Camera Raw is a .dat file and contains some info from the raw settings and probably other stuff that I can't find, it states being a video file but you can't play them.
    Bridge cache are jpeg files that you can view, even without Bridge, for example they can be opened in PS itself without problems.
    If you have set to build all at 100% then it will generate jpeg files in the original size at a high quality jpeg setting.
    As said, I have a Mac but Yammer or Curt can provide you with the correct path to find the Bridge Cache folder yourself.
    On my System this is in the user Library / caches/ Adobe/ Bridge CS6 and inhere is a folder called cache. This folder contains 4 folders.
    - 256   : contains the thumbnails, very small files (in the range of 10 to 50 kb)
    - 1024 : contains the HQ previews, relatively large files (500 KB to 3 MB, depending on the files itself)
    - data  : a text file containing all sorts of info, don't know what exactly but is a text file that also can grow to several 100 MB
    - Full   : in here are the 100 % previews settled and they can grow to huge proportions ( around 10 MB for 18 MP files, depending on file size and content etc)
    If you have set to keep 100 % previews in Bridge prefs this last folder (full) will be taking a lot of space on your disk
    If you also have set to export cache to folder it creates same size (hidden) files with this cache in the folder itself.
    I never understood the need for export cache to folders for several reasons, first and most important, I had a longstanding bug preventing me from doing so (error message about overwriting a CacheT file) but also each version of Bridge has a different Cache format and you can't read older cache files. Also reading the cache file (especially when on DVD etc) takes a very long time. For purpose of needing to view archived files on external devices you better select the 'Prefer Embedded' option, works faster ten reading earlier exported cache.
    Not sure how you did purge the Bridge Cache but in your case I would Quit Bridge and find the equivalent Cache folder on Windows (Yammer, Curt?).
    manual delete this Cache folder with all its content and restart Bridge.
    This provides you with a new, fresh but very empty cache file. You need to recache the lot for the previews.
    If you are not sure just try it for experiment, move the old folder outside the library and try it. If it does not make any difference just Quit and replace the old file

  • Bridge cs5 camera raw 6.5 to 6.5 and new bridge cs6 preview problem

    Hi,
    when i actualize camera raw from 6.5 to 6.6 the preview can`t give me right preview after 1 adjustment in camera raw.Image apears like when we open it in camera raw and it last few seconds with the yellow exclamation mark.
    Months ago the only solution i found after several instals was to turn back to camera raw 6.5.
    Now im trying beta bridge cs6 and problem come back for me again.
    I use Nikon D3x with 14 bits ~49MB .nef files in Windows 7 64 bits.
    Is any one have same problem?And why only in 6.6 (and new camera raw 7.0) and not in 6.5?
    Thanks

    I use Bridge CS5 with camera raw 6.7.1 in combibnation with a canon 6D and a canon 5D Mark2. The raw files from the 5D are shown in bridge, the raw files from the 6D are not. There is just an icon. The camera raw add-on is the latest usable update for Windows, the canon 6d is listed as compatible. Has anyone an idea what to do?
    The Canon 6D id NOT supported by ACR 6.7.1. It was supported for the very first time in ACR 7.3 whch requires CS6 to run.
    Therefore you will never be able to open raw CR2 files from the 6D directly in CS5.
    If you do not plan on upgrading, you can download the free, stand-alone Adobe DNG Converter 8.3 (always use the latest version, it's not tied to your version of Photoshop at all), install it like any other application and then run it on each batch of CR2 files to convert them to raw DNG files that you can then open in your version of Photoshop and ACR.

  • Bridge CS6 output panel has vanished!

    Hi I am not on CC I have CS6 which I have just migrated from a G5 (6.8)  to a MacPro (10.10.2) only to find that the output panel on Bridge has vanished. I am unable to find anyway of getting it back. Any advice anyone? !
    I have located via the hidden Library  Bridge CS6 Application Support file and the startup scripts folder is empty.... what to do?

    OSX 10.8.2
    Bridge : CS6 (version 5.0.1.21)
    No software updates have been installed. The Output would give me option to PDF or Web.
    Nothing is happening now. The RIGHT hand window pane is completely empty.
    I select my three images, click on Output and nothing happens. (Just three selected images and and empty pane on the right hand side.)
    As of a month ago, this worked. I selected three images and Output, a whole window would show up with options to adjust the layout of my pdf sheet.
    I could fill in the header and footer, select columns and rows, resolution. Everything. Now nothing shows up.
    I can't describe it anymore than that.
    Thanks for any help

  • Is there a default setting for the Preview Pane Zoom level?

    I want to have my default zoom level of my preview pane set to "Fit to Window"
    Mine is default set to 100%. This is too big. I can not find the option.

    Select the audio clips and use Modify>Stereo Pair. Command- period.

  • Bridge CS6 - Output panel missing.  OS X 10.9.2

    I have Creative Suite CS6, Mac OS X 10.9.2
    Bridge has lost Output Panel.
    I have had it before and it has worked well, now when I select files to the Output, right side of the screen is completly empy.
    I have started Bridge again, reset preferences and checked startup scripts. Nothing works...

    It is now a preference panel within System Preferences. Look at the bottom row.

  • Changing preview panel transparency background in Adobe Bridge CC

    Can the background color showing transparency in the Adobe Bridge CC preview panel be changed from the default black to white?

    Thank you GCRayaPC - I tried again after your positive response but realized I copied the wrong file into the Extensions folder. Doh!
    Glad I wasn't more nasty when I posted (already red-faced).

  • Previews are Blurry in Bridge CS6

    On several occasions I have seen that some images are previewed blurry in Bridge CS6.
    I have set the preview to full resolution/quality, so this is not the issue.
    When it happens, it happens like this:
    1. I have a layered file, and the preview is good and sharp.
    2. Then I sharpen, and the preview is blurry.
    This has occurred numerous times. I thought the preview was corrupted, so I deleted the file, and hauled it back from the trash, so a new preview would be built.
    Again, this new preview would again be blurry. (Out of 20 files, two had a blurry preview - and the files themselves were NOT blurry).
    Flattening such a file does not help. While the flattened file is also sharp in Photoshop, its preview remains blurry. A copied file also has the blurry preview.
    I don't see any correlation with image dimensions, file sizes. Some images just randomely are previewed blurry in Bridge CS6.
    The only correlation I see is that it is ALWAYS SHARPENED IMAGES that are previewed blurry (the unsharpened versions always look much sharper in Bridge CS6)
    What can I do to have Bridge CS6 preview ALL images correctly?
    edit: I purged the cache for this folder, and the rebuilt preview is again blurry.
    Even worse, now 50 out of 100 images have blurry previews.
    How can I get previews that I can work with?

    I have a latest generation MacBook Pro retina, so that should be fine.
    It actually worked when I purged the cache for this folder a second time. The blur went away.
    The first time I had done a "select all" images to show Bridge which previews I needed rebuilt - not necessary, maybe that was an overload for Bridge.

  • Where has the preview panel gone is Bridge CS5?

    Today when I opened up Bridge, the preview panel on the right hand side has disappeared. It shows as being selected when I go to the Window Menu but it isn't there. The scroll bar is also missing so I can't view all of the thumbnails. Does anyone have any ideas about why this has happened and how I can return it to it's normal format? Thanks, Michelle.

    Fantastic. Thank you, much appreciated

    No, but you can choose Reset Workspace from the workspace menu to get it back to normal.

  • When using the camera downloader in Adobe Bridge CS6 with Nikon D5200 we are unable to see previews of the photos and it is very slow to download. The issue occurs under a the users rights, but not under admin level. This is a new issue

    When using the camera downloader in Adobe Bridge CS6 with Nikon D5200 we are unable to see previews of the photos and it is very slow to download. The issue occurs under a the users rights, but not under admin level. This is a new issue.

    Hi Jdentremont,
    Lync client gets user photos by first querying the Address Book Web Query (ABWQ) service on the server, which is exposed through the Distribution List Expansion web service. The client receives
    the image file and then copies it to the user's cache to avoid downloading the image each time it needs to be displayed. The attribute values returned from the query are also stored in the cached Address Book Service entry for the user. The Address Book Service
    deletes all cached images every 24 hours, which means that it can take up to 24 hours for new user images to be updated in the cache on the server.
    To troubleshoot your problem, please follow the steps below:
    1.  Navigate to
     “X:\share\1-WebServices-1\ABfiles\000000000\000000000” folder. (ABS file share)
    You should see some photo files in this folder as the following screenshot.
    2. Delete all the files in this folder.
    3. On test PC, delete local cache files.
    %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Lync\[email protected]
    4. Sign-in Lync with the test account.
    5. Go back to the ABS file share, check if there is any Photo file in the folder.
    Best regards,
    Eric

  • Adobe Bridge CS6 keeps zooming into previews

    Hi guys. I'm using Adobe Bridge CS6 to browse some media content, but each time I preview a video, it plays zoomed in about 20% or so. It does this for all video clips, all sizes, no matter how I try to reconfigure the layout, use OUTPUT mode, FILMSTRIP mode, ESSENTIALS etc, it still shows zoomed in.
    I'm running Win7 64bit with a GTX570 with updated drivers.
    Please help. Thanks.

    You mean 200 % instead of 20 %??
    Use the loupe on an image and check what the default zoom percentage is, it should show 100 % and if it is at 200 % you have to use your mouse scroll wheel to set it back to 100 % (it runs from 100 % to 200, 400 and 800 %).
    If your video files exceed the preview window you have to enlarge this window or if the behavior keeps this way consider to reset the preferences of Bridge holding down control key while restarting Bridge and choose reset prefs.

  • Bridge CC - Content Panel looks different than Preview

    Problem - Images in the Content panel look dull and desaturated. The view of the same image in the Preview Panel, as well as Photoshop CC, looks fine (ie, like I expect from working with these images in CS6). This applies to NEF, JPEG and PSD files. In the attached screenshot, note the distinct lack of red in the skin tones in the Content Panel compared to Preview. Blues look a little dull as well. This is a PSD file. This image is tagged sRGB, verified in the Metadata panel as well as in Photoshop CC.
    I have read similar threads here (where all of Bridge was dull and desaturated), but I don't see anything that mentions the two panels in Bridge displaying images differently.
    Background - 10 years as a pro photographer, and I know what I'm doing around a Mac and color management. I finally "upgraded" from CS6 to CC when I got my new Mac.
    System -
    Retina iMac w/Yosemite. Second monitor - HP LP2475w (Bridge sits on the HP monitor)
    Both monitors have profiles generated with an i1 Display and the i1 Profiler application.
    Both monitors are using their correct profiles
    Steps Already taken (condensed)
    1. Purge cache (multiple times throughout the process).
    2. Check color cache and cache permissions.
    3. Reinstall Bridge at the behest of Adobe support, even though this was a new install.
    4. Check that "Always high quality" thumbnails is checked in Bridge (this seems to have no effect either way).
    5. Check color settings - NA GP2 in Bridge. Interestingly, the same behavior is exhibited no matter what I select here.
    6. Drag Bridge to the iMac display - everything now looks good. Drag back - now BOTH Content and Preview are desaturated. Will stay like this until Bridge is restarted.
    7. Recalibrate the HP (Bridge) monitor. No change in behavior.
    8. Verify no sidecar xmp for this image, to rule out ACR in the problem.
    9. Open Output module to verify that the content panel looks the same way there (it does).
    10. Investigate ~user/Library/Caches/Adobe/Bridge CC/Cache/ folders. Wow, the preview for this particular image in /1024/xxxx LOOKS CORRECT (like it does in the Preview panel). So Bridge IS generating high quality previews correctly.
    Thoughts -
    1. This seems unlikely to be a monitor profile issue. Bridge itself is displaying the same PSD two different ways. A bad profile would make everything on that monitor look wrong, wouldn't it?
    2. Some of my images sit on an external drive, but the screenshot here is from the internal mac drive, to try and rule that out.
    3. It's not some strange issue with the HP monitor not displaying color evenly across it's surface - if it were, than the screenshot would not show the difference between the panels. I also moved the Bridge window around the display to further verify that color is the same across the whole panel.
    4. Maybe Bridge ignores the profile for the content panel - but in the case of no profile, it assumes sRGB (or does it?) which is exactly what this image is. I have tried this with Adobe RGB images and the same behavior is exhibited.
    5. Previews are being generated correctly, but do not seem to be what is read off disc to display in the Content Panel.
    Any thoughts would be appreciated. My gut feeling is that for some reason, Bridge is not showing me the saved high quality preview in the Content panel. But why?

    Is your file tagged?  I.e. does it have the proper color profile embedded?
    Is your monitor accurately calibrated and profiled?
    What are your preferences in Bridge re previews and profiles?

  • Bridge CS6 workspaces suddenly greyed; content panel is only active item

    I am running CS6 and OS X 10.8.5. Everything was fine, and today suddenly Bridge has stopped working properly. Under the Window menu, workspaces are greyed. Under the View menu, As thumbnails, As details, As list are greyed/disabled.
    Bridge appears to be locked into the Light Box workspace, except that there is no preview panel. The only panel available is the Content panel; when I select one or more files, there is/are no previews.
    This is what the window looks like.
    So far, these are the things I have tried, to no avail:
    I have restarted the computer, restarted Bridge, I have purged the cache, disabled startup scripts.
    Any help would be hugely appreciated.

    First try to delete the Bridge plist file from the user library.
    Quit Bridge and go to the user library (by default hidden per OSX10.7, use menu Go with option to reveal).
    User (your user name) / library/ Preferences / inhere find and manual delete the file called "com.adobe.bridge5.plist".
    Again hold down option key while restart and again reset prefs.
    If this is not working I'm afraid you have to reinstall Bridge CS6. First be sure you have backed up your keyword list if you have one and also look in the aforementioned user library but now Application Support / Adobe/ Bridge CS6. Copy this folder and content to a back up place for security. Inhere all are sort of custom settings including your custom workspaces, so if needed you can copy some of these setting back to the same folders and location of your new install.
    Repeat this also for Photoshop (both same library / app support and preferences) for back up security of your custom settings because Bridge is part of PS install in CS6.
    Be sure to have your install disk or image file for PSCS6 at hand including the serial number. Use the official uninstaller and once you are doing so also try the Adobe Cleaner Tool :
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html  (read the instructions carefully before acting).
    Run Apple disk utility to check and repair permissions and then reinstall PSCS6 that also installs Bridge CS6. Run the updaters and try again.
    And a final thought, before doing the above create a new user account for testing and see if this helps. Sometimes User Accounts get corrupted and Bridge is very sensitive for that. MacOsX recovery disk can help to recreate the problem user account.

  • Ram preview green line goes away when changing zoom level

    I did a ram preview of my project, about 12 seconds long.  Everything looks good until I want to zoom in or out on the comp, then the green line disappears and I have to render it over again.  I don't remember AE doing this before.  If I zoom to say 25% and render part of the comp, then zoom to 50%, that part with the green line is gone.  I can render a different segment of the comp while in 50% and switch back to 25%, and the green line from when I rendered at 25% is back.  I've turned off adaptive resolution in the fast preview options, and I turned off the disk cache.  Is this a bug or just the way AE works now?  I'm using CS6 version 11.0.2 on Win7.

    Actually, I think I am.  I didn't notice it before, but when I zoom in, if I have the resolution set to Auto, it changes between quarter, half and full depending on the zoom level.  I've never noticed that before, or maybe they only recently made it so it didn't say Auto all the time, but now says what effective resolution it's set to.  So is that the answer to my problem?  Leave it on full resolution (or whatever I need at the time)?
