seeing unexpected behavior when using the Core Image Component v3 in AEM 6.5

 seeing unexpected behavior when using the Core Image Component v3 in AEM 6.5 with editable templates and style policies.

Issue:

• When opening the style policy menu on the image component, multiple policies appear to be enabled.

• Clicking on a policy can cause the menu to move or shift to another part of the screen.

• Selecting and saving a policy seems to have no effect.

• The issue is not page-specific and only seems to affect this component.

Additional Notes:

• This issue seems isolated to the Image component (v3)—other components like Text work as expected with the style system.

• The template policy and style settings are correctly configured with multiple styles under the component policy.

• Behavior is consistent across multiple templates and pages.

Expected Behavior:

• The style policy menu should behave consistently with other core components.

• Changes made through the style system should be retained and reflected on the component when the page is refreshed.

Has anyone else experienced this issue? Any guidance or workarounds would be appreciated!

Hi @ZeelTr,

To better understand the issue - Could you please share the exact version of AEM you're using, including the Service Pack (SP).

Try switching to Core Image v2 Temporarily

• Add the Image v2 component to the same page/template.

• Check if the style dropdown behaves normally there.

• If yes, this confirms it's likely a v3-specific issue.

Also, Check Clientlibs in Dev Tools

• Open browser Dev Tools (F12), go to the Console and Network tabs.

• Click on the style dropdown and check if any JS errors appear or any requests fail - especially anything related to core.wcm.components.* or cq.authoring.*.
