LR 5.4 Develop Full screen glitch.

This is a minor issue for me. So minor that I've never experienced it before today. I did a bit of searching but didn't find a reference to this particular problem...
This glitch is very apparent if the image is displayed 1:1 so assume that for all of the following. If I first display an image in the Library and then switch to develop there are no differences between the full screen view "F" and the normal view except for the amount of the image shown. If I have not visited the library module to view a particular image since the last time I started LR the image in full screen mode is slightly blurry, just as if the focus was off. Switch back to normal view by again pressing "F" and the picture is in focus.
I have found a way to observe the glitch 100% of the time on my system. Here is the procedure:
1. In the Develop module display any image. Select 1:1 display mode. Exit Lightroom.
2. Restart LR. The image will still be 1:1. Press the F key. The display will switch to full screen mode and the image will be blurry when compared to the normal view. Repeatedly pressing F goes from the normal view with the image in focus to the full screen mode with the image not in focus.
3. From the normal window select the library module. Reselect the Develop module. Toggling to full screen will now show the same image as in the normal window, i.e. both in focus.
Is this a known glitch--one I just wasn't successful in locating during my searches?
My system:
27" late 2012 iMac; 3TB Fusion Drive' 32GB DRAM; 3.4 GHz i7 CPU. OS X 10.9.2

You're right, it does start in fit view. I wrote it from memory and remembered incorrectly . If you change #2 "The image will still be 1:1" to "Select 1:1 view mode" the rest of the statement is a correct representation of what I see.
I suspected this might be a one-off problem when I didn't find anything that remotely resembled this problem in searching with Google.
I did try deleting the preferences file com.adobe.Lightroom5.plist but didn't have any success. I also tried creating a new catalog. Same result.
I should add one other thing I've discovered. When in full display mode with a blurred image I can hit the left or right keyboard arrow to bring up a different image and then hit the opposite arrow to return to the blurred image. It is no longer blurred. This is a much faster work around for me than going into Library and back. It also tells me that there might be a problem somewhere in the display driver chain. Just a WAG.

Safari full screen glitch when adding Bookmarks

Hey there people!
Love Safari, but I've had a fullscreen operation glitch for probably a year and still have not found a solution. The glitch only occurs while Safari is in full screen mode.
Problem:
1. Occurs when adding a new bookmark (in any method either thru keyboard shortcut, menu (bookmarks > add bookmark) or share button (share > add bookmark)
2. Adding Bookmarks pop up menu appears (confirming bookmark location) but underneath the pop up menu the Safari window flickers to full screen view of default mac brushed aluminium backdrop and the space quickly slides to the left. While this is happening another brushed aluminium desktop slides from the right and into view. This backdrop then flickers to reveal original Safari window content with Bookmarks pop up menu ontop.
3. However at this point before confirming bookmark add - if all desktop spaces are revealed via Mission Control, Safari has created a blank desktop space with Safari logo to the left of the original Safari screen. This space is titled the current web page but the thumbnail is blank (mac brushed aluminium backdrop). If the space is selected I can only see the brushed aluminium backdrop. It cannot be closed (with command W or Esc) or via Mission Control.
4. Back to original Safari window. After I confirm which folder to save the bookmark, Safari space slides to the left and merges with the ORIGINAL desktop space (the default desktop that is created on system boot which cannot be moved or deleted). This space now looks like normal fullscreen Safari however the dock and menu bars are showing and the space is titled Desktop rather than Safari.
6. In order to display Safari in proper fullscreen mode again, Safari has to FIRST "EXIT Full Screen" (using either keyboard shortcut or menu shortcut, full screen button does not appear). After EXIT Full Screen, Safari is correctly displayed in windowed mode in DESKTOP. Safari has to Enter Full Screen as normal to restore Safari as its own space and in full screen.
Notes:
- Glitch does not occur at other times (including adding pages to Reading List or during another pop up menu such as (File > Save As).
- The glitch was first evident since fullscreen implementation in Lion. I have since updated to Mountain Lion hoping it would fix the issue but it remains unaffected.
- I have attempted removing all Safari extensions. I have also tried removing 3rd party plugins such as Growl, Alfred. But this hasn't made any difference.
Macbook Pro mid 2010
Safari 6.0.4

Does anybody have any ideas or suggestions? (clean install of OSX will most likely work but is last resort)

Blurry full screen image 4.x/5.0/5.2 RC (Develop Module)

I've created a small youtube video showing how the image goes blurry when hitting F for full screen.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bI0GGFgE7Y8
I've zoomed to 1:1 and then hit F in this case. It's tempermental, it's not something that happens 100% of the time. I'd say more like 85%.
I've also seen it be sharp after hitting F and then go blurry when I try to pan left or right on the full screen image.
This issue really makes a dedicated monitor for full screen images when developing useless.

I'm not the only one having this problem:

This question has been asked already several times here: http://onesearch.sun.com/search/onesearch/index.jsp?qt=resizing+image&subCat=siteforumid%3Ajava76&site=dev&dftab=siteforumid%3Ajava76&chooseCat=javaall&col=developer-forums
There is no method in MIDP which rescales a picture for you, so you have to write it on your on (or use existing code). But usually this would be pretty slow. Mostly it is better to offer different versions of your application for different devices (screen resolutions) where the images have already the appropriate size within your jar-file.

Preview bug, not responding to key strokes in full screen view immediately

I've had leopard since it was released and have been very pleased with it for the most part. I update the software regularly.
My problem is that since moving to leopard I cannot use the arrow keys (being the primary ones that I use) immediately upon going into full screen mode of preview, this is very irritating as I use many pdf files and find full screen the best view. I can get around this by pressing play in full screen then pausing and reverting to the arrow keys, but using so many pdf files this becomes very tiresome. Is there a patch for this bug?
I have a macbook with 2gb ram, and intel 2.16ghz processors.

If you want to report this to Apple, send a bug report (or enhancement request) via its Bug Reporter system. Join the Apple Developer Connection (ADC)—it's free and available for all Mac users and gets you a look at some development software. Since you already have an Apple username/ID, use that. Once a member, go to Apple BugReporter and file your bug report/enhancement request. You'll get a get a Bug ID number; thus, starting a dialog directly with engineering.

Why can I no longer watch music videos in full screen mode via a playlist in the music app since upgrading to ios7?

Since upgrading to ios7 my iPhone 4S no longer allows me to watch music videos in full screen mode when I select the clips via a playlist from the music app.
It's now more necessary than before to use the music app rather than the video app to select music videos to play. That's because the video app doesn't list music videos by artist any more. And also because the fast forward and rewind buttons on headphones remote no longer work on videos.
How do I watch full screen videos when rotating my iphone now shows my music library rather than showing the video itself?

I do not think it is a problem to play videos in the full screen mode using the video app. It should work just fine, it does work ok for me on iphone 5. The original question was to play music videos in the music app. Music videos and videos are two different things - I am not sure why but they are.
The problem here is that the music app supports lists and the video app does not. I just looked at the ios7 video app and while my few test videos are shown in it, the lists they were in (in iTunes) are nowhere to be found. There is no lists in the video app - period - which is as it was before.
The video app plays videos and music videos in the full screen mode no problem but if you have a few hundreds or more of such videos you will have hard time finding the one you want to play. There is simply no way to categorize or group videos. The old good folders/directories are, I guess, too simple for Apple. It is just too bad that for years on end the world's leader in S/W development did not offer anything to categorize videos.
You have lists, albums, etc., for music, you have albums for pictures but you have absolutely nothing for videos. And this is and has been the Apple's state-of-the art solution for this problem - simply insist that the problem does not exist. Actually it is getting worse. Not only there is nothing to categorize or group videos but now the only way it could be done (by marking videos as music videos and using the music app) results in a mini playback area.
Soon this OS will be able to cook dinner for your but grouping videos... no way.
What is happening here???

Why does my iPhone screen glitch up?

My iPhone at times does this random thing where the screen glitches. My screen ends up looking a bit like the crystal have burnt with weird multi-coloured vertical lines all over my screen, making the iPhone unusable for 5 mins before returning to its normal self. Sometimes it fades out onto a black screen and every time this occurs, I have to reset my iPhone and it's back to normal.
I'm unsure if it's coincidental, but many times this happens, I have either lost service or wifi/both. Also this tends to happen when I'm low on battery, just charging my phone or have just finished charging. This usually happens once a day or every 2-3 days sometimes.
I've tried restoring my phone and all but it doesn't seem to have done anything.
Does anyone know how to fix this or know what is happening?

I forgot to mention. Usually after the glitch and when my iPhone returns to normal, the apps on the bottom row of the page (on all pages) all go to the next page e.g. if you have 3 full pages of apps pre glitch, after this glitch you will have 6, 3 containg 4 rows of apps and another 3 pages containg 1 row. I don't know if this gives an indication to the root of the problem.

Using Win 10 there is a need for an app to determine the full device display area and aspect ratio programitically; the dimensions are needed to create full-screen bitmap.

While Windows.Current.Bounds returns the application windows size, in order to create a full-screen bitmap my app would need to retrieve the full display area of the device. I cannot even get the aspect ratio.
Pre-Win10, using Windows.Current.Bounds I can create a bitmap of whatever size application window the user is seeing. When the user is showing my app at full screen, I can therefore get the full display area and aspect ratio of the device and create a full-screen
bitmap.
With Win10, the user would need to know to hide the taskbar and also display at full-screen before an app can retrieve the display area and aspect ratio using Windows.Current.Bounds.
Before Win10 it's obvious to the user that full-screen is or is not being used. When I create the bitmap, I create it to fit the application window. When the app is displayed full screen, the bitmap will be full screen. Also, the app starts full-screen so
I can detect the display area at startup if I need to.
With Win10, to the user the app "looks like" it is full screen with the taskbar displayed even though it's not really full screen.
I believe that in Win10 determining the full display area will be useful and not just retrieving the application window size.

Rob, Is this forum best way to get my suggestion to the development team?
Before Win10 it's obvious to the user that full-screen is or is not being used. When I create the bitmap, I create it to fit the application window. When the app is displayed full screen, the bitmap will be full screen. Also, the app starts full-screen

Yes, Windows.Current.Bounds does work the same, but I believe that in Win10 determining the full display area will be useful and not just the application window.

Full screen issues prior to 11

i always seem to find myself wondering, do developers even use their own products? i would assume they do, but i keep seeing stupid workflow issues or simple problems apple was always known for not having. i wont even begin to discuss the direction the hardware is taking (underpowered mini ipad? unreparable/non-upgradable macbook pro?) sheesh, the least you guys could do is make the software work, thats what we pay for. stop worrying about deadlines so much and "make it just work" as youve always been recognized for. ever since mountain lion and full screen apps in osx, it seems as if no one ever used itunes in full screen mode. was it meant to dump you out to the desktop whenever a fullscreen video finishes playback? i patiently waited for the bug fix; though you debut an entirely new version of itunes, and it has yet to be fixed. funny thing is, it has gotten worse. to clarify, itunes is in full screen mode and i choose say, a podcast. although itunes is in position "2" in mission control (dashboard is position "0"), to the right of my primary desktop (position "1"), and fullscreen video playback appears in position "3," upon playback completion i am returned past itunes to my primary desktop. i dont know how this wasnt picked up on and fixed prior to or upon release of version 11. doesnt make much sense to me as to why i have to swipe back to itunes from my desktop to choose the next video since i was in itunes when i chose the video in the first place. in addition, ive also noticed since the release of version 11 that when a video is playing in fullscreen (position "3") and i swipe back to fullscreen itunes (position "2") and choose another video to play without stopping playback, the itunes window replaces my primary desktop (position "1"), leaves the blank grey textured background usually seen behind full screen itunes in position "2" (swiping to it only reverts you back to position "1"), and playback starts fullscreen in its intended place (position "3"). the only ways to fix it is toggle the full screen option for itunes, end the video prior to selecting a different one (which as aforementioned dumps you back to the desktop in position "1"), or quit and restart itunes. aside from the fact that no one seems to like all the "streamlining" that you did to the UI (including me; i dont get the point), i dont understand how you put in so much work in redeveloping an application that wasnt 100% prior to. yes it looks cooler, and sure its cleaner, but is it practical? the workflow is terrible. sidebars became a standard for a reason, they work. you just made a UI that requires me to click more and figure out where you moved everything. did you improve its function? did you simplify its operation? in my opinion, and i imagine many will agree, absolutely not. stop worrying about how things look and pay attention to how things work first. you are deviating from your principal business model and becoming just like all the other development companies who care for nothing but their profits and shareholders. i understand making money is any business's primary goal, but remember what got you here; remember why you have loyal customers. if you forget, we wont be around to catch you when you fall.

I just gave the 4oD site a try (using this link) with the latest runtime and I'm seeing the the scrubber bar, popout and full screen buttons. I tried IE, Firefox and Chrome. Could you try doing a clean install and try again?
How do I do a clean install of Flash Player?

Full screen preview and slideshow are blurry / fuzzy

Hi folks-
I just upgraded from CS2 to CS4, in part to improve efficiency of selecting photos - I wanted the zoom and loupe features. Unfortunately a very basic function has been compromised and I'm hoping there's a solution: In both full-screen preview and slideshow the full-screen image is notably blurry. This is a problem for two reasons: 1. I can't judge pictures accurately by just flipping through them in full-screen mode (without zooming to 100% to see if they are well-focused). 2. I can't use Slideshow for, well, slideshows. I've had to resort to keeping another app (like Windows Picture Viewer) open just to be able to quickly flip through and evaluate images full-screen or to show slideshows.
I've tried setting all the options related to image quality (they mostly have to do with caching thumbnails and speeding 100% viewing); I've tried purging the cache files. Nothing helps.
Any ideas? Thanks!

It seems to me that there is something wrong with it.
I am trying Bridge CS4 as a viewer for my JPEG files.
I also noticed that the previews were fuzzy. I activated the high-quality previews as well as the option to generate the previews at screen size.
Here's what I noticed. I went to check out a specific photo that is quite sharp with a number of straight lines, angles, details, where it's very easy to detect a lack of sharpness. That photo immediately looked fuzzy to me, which didn't jive with my memory of it. I quickly opened it in other viewers, which displayed it as intended with all the expected sharpness.
So, I went through the settings to see where the problem could be and I immediately thought of checking the box to get software previews instead of hardware, restarted the app, purged the cache, tried again. There my photo had recovered its sharpness, or at least most of it. I thought I found the culprit, but not quite.
I went to browse other photos and found one in particular with a lot of fine detail (hair) and that photo also didn't display all the sharpness that it should have (I was still using software mode). The difference was very slight and to make sure of it it required A/B comparison between Bridge and PS, but there was a difference.
Now I tried the opposite. I went back to hardware rendering mode, restarted, purged the cache, tried again. That second photo looked alright in preview, but the previous photo looked fuzzy again.
So, it doesn't work the same way for each photo...
What's the main difference between the first photo, obviously fuzzy in hardware mode, and the second one, alright in hardware mode but slightly fuzzier in software? The ratio. The first one is a vertical photo, the second one is horizontal (close to square).
I quickly checked other vertical photos and they showed the same behavior...
Now staying in hardware mode, I noticed something else. When I preview the vertical photo and click on it, or double click, it quickly jumps, switching between 2 versions of the photo: the one displayed originally (fuzzy) and another one, with a very slightly different size, which is sharp. During that manipulation it also briefly displays "100%" at the top of the screen. It doesn't stick when you click and immediately switches back, so it looks like a glitch.
Now in software mode, I tried the same, this time you can click once on the photo (which is originally displayed *almost* sharp). When you click once, it displays "100%" but also displays a very slightly smaller version that is clearly fuzzy. Clicking again goes back to the other, less fuzzy one, but doesn't display "100%" this time.
Doing the same test on horizontal photos shows no change that I can see.
So, it seems to me that in the preview mode, Bridge has trouble displaying some photos (vertical ones?) in their actual resolution (100%)
and since there is a slight resizing going on, it brings fuzziness. This doesn't explain the very slight fuzziness seen on horizontal photos in software mode.
Now I'll mention, for those still awake, that I saw no fuzziness on the same vertical photos when I go to Review Mode with *hardware* rendering. Photos there are sharp. Now if I go to the review mode with software rendering enabled, vertical photos are not 100% sharp (akin to the small difference I mentioned earlier while in software mode), while they are sharper in preview.
To sum up, it seems that the only configuration that gives me consistently 100% sharp (=as they were meant to be after post-processing) photos no matter what their orientation, is when I stay in hardware rendering mode and use the Review Mode, instead of preview.
This all really smells like a bug.
For info, I am using Windows 7 and an ATI HD4850 card, and this only about processed JPEG files, not RAW files.
Perhaps the preview is really meant as a quick preview and not a tool to view final photos at 100% accuracy...
