Adjustment layer Position Error Mac 25.1.0

Hi,

 

I'm experiencing an annoying bug.

If I have an adjustment layer on v4, with a transform effect applied and the position and scale properties keyframed, affecting the media on tracks v1-v3. 
Modifying the properties of a clip on v5 will cause the adjustemnent layer to jump position as if the transform effect is not applied.

Easier to see in action, video attached.

Any fixes for this? Have tried deleting the cache.

 

Premiere 25.1.0, Mac OS 13.7.6

Hey again

 

I tried replying to this before, but it didn't seem to post

 

  • Issue – Adjustment layer transform effect disabling 
  • Steps to reproduce  Place a adjustment layer with a transform effect on a timeline, then the another clip above that, adjusting the motion parameters of the top clip, turns the transform off on the adjustment layer, at leaset visually.
  • Expected result  Only the top layer should move, the adjustment layer sohlud be unaffected
  • Actual result  The layers affected by the adjustment layer jump to their origin position as if the transform was disabled.
  • Screen recording – Included above
  • Adobe Premiere Pro version – 25.1.0
  • Operating system – Mac OS 13.7.6
  • Video format  h264 and png and jpeg
  • Comparative information helps us understand more about when the issue occurs: 
    • Does it affect all projects or only some projects?  - yes
    • Does it affect new projects? - seems to
    • When did the problem begin? not sure

Nesting the clips as Neil suggested did work, but I consider that a workaround, and I'm not a fan of nesting clips, due to difficulty decomposing and accessing parameters

 

Thanks and sorry for the late reply

Hi @Imkindofabigdeal -  Thanks for submitting your bug report. We need a few more details to try to help with the issue.
Please see, How to Report a Problem.

 

There were some transform bugs fixed in version 25.2. Can you update to the latest version currently 25.5 and let us know if you are still having issues.


Sorry for the frustration.

Nest the clips on V1-4.

Everyone's mileage always varies ...
