Something's changed!

I always use Loupe view in the Library module. Up until yesterday if I switched between Develop and Library the library view came up in Loupe. Ever since yesterday, every time I switch back to Library the view changes to Grid and I have to manually change it back to Loupe... I must have changed a preference or something without realising but I can't for the life of me find it. I swap between the two modules a lot so it's driving me nuts... :help:

just a workaround but you only need to press G or L to change between the two. (i am looking for the real answer now!) :D

Blimey, that was quick, Janice! :) Thanks for the suggestion... you've given me an idea actually, I use a button on my ShuttlePRO as a shortcut to the Library, I could program it as a macro to add the Loupe keyboard shortcut aswell... still only a workaround but, as I'm terminally lazy, it'll save me a few keypresses until I find out what I've done to break it! :thumbs:

BTW, the Loupe shortcut is 'E', 'L' is Lights Out :p :)
 
Mine always remembers how it was before I went into Develop - whether it was Loupe or Grid. It's never returned in a fixed view either way.

:thinking:

I hardly ever use the clickable navigation anyhow - I just press G or E to go to the one I want anyhow.

Me too... never seen it do this and can't for the life of me work out why :shrug:

Yeah, I suppose I do it the same way except I have buttons on my ShuttlePRO assigned to Library & Develop. Setting up a macro has worked around it for now... when going into Library now, it briefly flickers in Grid then quickly switches to Loupe.
 
Well I've just tried the age old fix, complete system reboot... and it's back to normal! One of those mystery gremlins I guess!! :thinking:

Thanks for the thoughts Janice & Rob!
