Unable to see Note Preview Pane after macOS 15.2 update

Hi,

After updating my Mac to macOS 15.2 (Sequoia), Notes Version 4.11 (2993.1), I can no longer see the preview of my notes in the Notes app on the right-hand side when selecting a note or folder. This feature was working fine before the update, but now the preview pane is missing.

Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

  1. Restarted my Mac.
  2. Restarted the app.
  3. Checked for macOS updates (I’m on macOS 15.2 now).

Unfortunately, none of these steps fixed the problem. Now, to view a note, I have to double-click it to open it in a new window, which wasn’t necessary before the update.

Has anyone else experienced this issue with the Notes app after updating to macOS 15.2? Any suggestions on how to restore the preview pane would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

I found this on Threads, which in turn referred to Reddit, and it worked for me:

"Switch to gallary view under "View", youll see the gallery. Then open one in gallery mode and you'll see only the menu bar. Then minimize the menu bar and you'll see a super thin line. Then quit the app and reopen and it should reopen them in gallery mode. Then switch back to list!"
