Yellow cast in Navigator and full-screen preview

bazac Jun 10, 2015 7:07 AM

I'm using Lightroom 6. Images that appear in the Navigator window appear to have a yellow cast compared to those in the Develop window (see grab below). Similarly, when I press F to get a full-screen preview, the images get the same yellow cast. When the images are exported they don't have the colour cast. Can anyone explain what's going on? I'm not hovering over a preview of a Sepia preset, before you ask.

The color cast in the histogram is a definitive indication that your monitor is not properly calibrated.

This wasn't evident in Lightroom 5 with the same monitor?

Improper monitor calibration is the only possible explanation for a yellow cast on the histogram.

I've recalibrated the monitor and the problem is still apparent. Calibration wouldn't explain why images look different in Develop mode and full-screen view.

Make sure your monitor calibration app Preferences are set to create ICC Version 2 Matrix profiles and not ICC Version 4 or LUT profiles. I would also try unchecking 'Use Graphics Processor' in LR Preferences.

Unticking graphics did it. Many thanks.

I'm also having the same issue. Not sure how to fix it!
