Bridge with Camera Raw 16.3.1 outputs .xmp files instead of embedding keywords
Issue:
My usual workflow is to use Bridge to add embedded keywords to JPG files.
After updating Camera Raw to 16.3.1 this same workflow generates .xmp sidecar files instead of embedding the metadata.
However, this is not consistent, with some JPG files accepting embedded metadata and some not.
Suspecting Camera Raw, I installed version 16.0 which allowed the keywords to be embedded as required.
(Bridge 14.1.0; macOS 14.5 (23F79), M2)
Notes:
The only difference between the files for which embedding worked and those for which it failed is that the failing files were output from PSDs which included a layer…

Errant overlay while masking in ACR from LrC
When using masks in ACR from LrC, an errant 'Show overlay (auto)' checkbox appears on top of the tools panel. While scrolling the panels can sometimes hide this, it may prevent access siders. This effect also occurs with PS Smart Objects with an ACR Filter layer.

Unexpected behaviour of reveal in finder command
In previous versions of Bridge, right-clicking an item shows a list of commands including "Reveal in Finder" (or Windows Explorer).
That command is still there but, instead of revealing the item, it opens it - if the item is a folder it opens the folder in the Finder, rather than revealing it, so you are then required to navigate back one layer of the folder heirarchy to actually see the folder.
If the item is an executable file (e.g. an application), it opens the application, rather than revealing its location, as the command indicates.
This is not only misleading, but…

Translation error in the Norwegian version
The workspace Light Table is translated to Lett tabell in the Norwegian version.
This is plain wrong, this is why.Lett tabell is in Norwegian a light (not heavy), tabell (as in Excel table)
The correct translation is: Lysbord
Lys = light emitted from a light source (it also means light, not dark)
bord= table to put things on.Also, in Norwegian, words like this are written in one word, not divided into two words.

Bridge Slideshow captions show filename only
I'm using Bridge 14.1.0 on a Mac running Sonoma 14.4.1. I would like to display the Description metadata field in Slideshow captions. In Settings > Thumbnails I have specified "Show: Description" and I can see the Descriptions just fine in the Bridge window when I select "View > As Thumbnails". However when I play a Slideshow by going to "View > Slideshow Options..." and choosing "Caption: Full", I see only the filename, with blank space below it. In fact I am unable to display any other metadata at all.

Zoom
Version 14.1.0.257
Issues with Zoom during Preview screen
MacBook Pro - Sonoma 14.5 - M3 MAX - 36GB
Expected zoom to show the close up of the area that I have selected.
Actual results in zoom window shows about a quarter of the selected area, with the rest of the pixels stretched to the edge of the zoom window. Tried to uninstall/reinstall Bridge but it does not fix the issue.

Camera Raw preferences in Bridge does not recognize GPU
When I try to edit Camera Raw (v. 16.3.0) preferences from Bridge (v, 14.1.0) it does not recognise GPU in Performance. Works well from Photoshop (v.25.9.0, GPU is recognized).
Please fix.

Wasted space on Metadata Panel
There seems to be an unnecessary waste of space on the Metadata Panel as per attached image shown in red. This screenshot is how I have my Bridge set up and there is more wasted space in the Metadata Panel than there is space to enter the data. Please remove the wasted space or allow a scroll bar on the bottom of the panel to allow data more room than the side of the panel.

Batch rename facility
I use the batch rename facility in different folders, once I'm finished sorting through images. I have various presets saved depending on what job I'm working on.
Please can we have the default set to number 1 when renumbering, or at least the option to set it always as 1. I don't want sequentially numbered images across different folders. I want to start each first image in a new folder to start at 0001. Not the last number that I finished with +11 vote -
Bug calling Image Processor from Bridge
When using the Image Processor from Bridge using
Tools>Photoshop>Image Processor
If any selected filename contains an apostrophe then Photoshop is brought to the foreground but the Image Processor dialogue box never appears.
There is no error message in Bridge or Photoshop.

JPGs and PNGs (on probably other formats) opening in MacOS Preview instead in Photoshop as set in preferences

Bridge: file named "?.tiff" caused cache to error and exit on startup v14.0.4
Folder opens fine initially, but the second open causes a crash with an error box but blank message.
Holding down shift-option-command allowed me to clear the cache and open the folder, but the next startup crashes.
By renaming the file from "?.tiff" to "unknown.tiff" I'm able to work around the problem, but this took a long time to debug because of the lack of an error message.
Thanks.1 vote -
Waiting for Initial thumbnail creation 2000 photos takes more than an hour....
After initial upload to computer it takes Bridge more than an hour to create all initial thumbnails; while doing so bridge pretty much hangs while processor is used for only 5%
This in unworkable; especially when you have a deadline to quick hand-in an early selection of that day's photo's for immediate publication.
Using latest Windows 11 Pro system on fast hardware.
Bridge working folder plus thumbnail cache configured on separate fast SSD NMVe drives (to no avail).Bridge software rendering on or off makes no difference.
Different preview option does not make a difference either (like embedded vs. standard,…1 vote -
AI Denoise creates DNG with random white squares in the picture
Bridge 14.0.4.222, Camera Raw 16.2.1, macOS 14.4.1
I open a Sony a6700 RAW FIle and use AI Denoise. The generated DNG Image has big white rectangles on it, sometimes with RGB-Patterns in it, sometimes lightly transparent or with a purple hue. When i view the image with macOS Preview, everything is fine, no rectangles, but when i open it with Bridge or Photoshop, there are those rectangles...
I expect a denoised image, not one with those rectangles.1 vote -
Keyword Panel keeps Jumping to last word in Keyword list
Bridge 2024 ver 14.0.4.222. When I use File Info to add info to images, upon closing File Info, my list of Keywords automatically scrolls to the very last Keyword in the list thus necessitating scrolling back up the list to the set of Keywords I was was working with. Really annoying.

Bridge keeps regenerating cached thumbnails
The later versions of Bridge keeps regenerating thumbnails every time the Bridge app window gets into focus. It has been like this for a while (used to be OK, not quite sure when this error was introduced). I have been hoping this would be fixed, but no luck so far.
Here is a repeatable sequence that will show this problem:
1) Select a smart collection in Bridge (workspace Filmstrip used)
In my case the collection targets a folder with 13 sub-folders (looking for files with one or more stars) holding the following file types:.acr: 6 files
.CR2: 6274 files…2 votes -
Generate Monitor-Size Previews: Wrong size generated
Bridge will usually generate previews with the wrong size when "Generate Monitor-Size Previews" has been enabled (checked). I would guess that this bug has been present for a while.
The setting can be found here: Preferences -> Advanced -> Generate Monitor-Size Previews
On my system (see below), I have a monitor with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels. When "Generate Monitor-Size Previews" is not checked, Bridge generates preview files with a pixel width of 2048 pixels in this cache folder (2048 seems to be the default size):
C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge\Cache\v36\1024...
Then, when checking "Generate Monitor-Size Previews", I see preview files with…
