Docker image ls or Docker images show partial menu in Mac

When I run docker on my Intel MacBook I see a partial menu containing “ i Info → U In Use”. I have deleted Docker, reinstalled it and still see this, with or without images. Also I have completely reinstall the MacOS by erasing the drive and install MacOS Sequoia and still see it. This only appears with
Docker image ls
Or
Docker images

How can I get rid of it?

I hope you didn’t really reinstall MacOS just “fix” this. What do you expect there? Why do you think it is “partial”? I don’t remember what should be there as I rarely had to run docker image ls recently and I never really focus on that info. That is what it seems to be. Info, not a menü. I’m not sure why “i” is highlghted, but “U” appears next to images that are in use.

If you don’t like this new image listing format, you can use the old one by choosing the table format:

docker image ls --format table

I did reinstall the MacOS for this in hops of this issue to be gone. Unfortunately, it did not. I understand that U means there is an image that is in use, but I cannot find it, to remove it. I have cleared the docker cache and have tried to uninstall Docker completely to no avail. This happened after a failed docker build and ever since then I am seeing this message. What I want to see a clean docker images command output without this annoying message.

I don’t know where you saw me menitoning any image that solves your problem. What you see is a feature. A new kind of output when listing images. I shared the command that shows the old output. I also explained what that “U” means. It has nothing to do with any failed build. If you didn’t see it before, you probably upgraded Docker Desktop since the failed build, or you tried listing images using another docker client if you managed to install two.

So again, this is not a bug, it is a feature, and if you don’t like it, you can format the docker image list output with the command I shared in my previous post.

I had not realized that is “a feature”. I did not imply that you mention anything like that. Although I believe this is a rather strange feature, but I will work with it, all-be-it very annoying!
