Please add the following settings
1. Ability to disable zoom on the program window or change mouse scroll wheel behavior. While scrubbing on the timeline with the mouse wheel it's prone to accidentally moving the cursor over the video and unintentionally zooming causing a frustrating experience.

2. Setting to disable the nodes on audio transitions in the sequence timeline. They make it more difficult to make edits in the timeline.

In the name of all that is holy, will Adobe do something about this. It didn’t do it years ago, so they must have a way of optioning it to ‘off’.

Yes, please make it so one must hold shift, ctrl or alt to make zooming in the monitors work!

I have to edit captions quite a bit in the daily job. Because the mac mouses are so sensitive to start scrolling, it is unbelievably easy to double click a caption in the program monitor and be instantly zoomed to 300%. It happens more times in a day than you’d think. This has to be easy to disable.

Hello again!
 

Recently, I had to finish a project started by a colleague in Premiere Pro v26.2 (without the possibility of downgrading the project to v24), and this issue — which is painful for many — has become relevant again!
 

Some new functions seem promising, but ZOOM (what is the purpose of it there anyway?) instead of SCROLL in the Source Monitor still makes this version practically unusable! How much time do you need to add a checkbox: "Remove zoom in source and return scrolling"? Why was this done in the first place? Personally, for me, this basic function is the MAIN factor why I haven't switched to Resolve yet... if I have to get used to working without it, I will do it in another program (and I’m sure I’m not the only one).
 

Please note that the last fully functional version (24.3) is currently the last one on the "Other Versions" list in Creative Cloud. This means that with one more update, it will either be lost or hard to access... only broken and useless versions will remain!


Do you plan to fix this problem? Please answer briefly in this format:

1 — "Yes, this annoying bug is scheduled to be fixed in patch N.... expect it soon."
2 — "No, there are no plans for a fix — cancel your auto-renewal."


Thank you in advance! This is a final cry from the heart, I hope you finally hear us!

Congratulations on the forum update!) Let's also update the thread about the unfixed issue that's preventing many users from fully using your product and updating to new versions (higher than the latest working version 24.3)!
I'd like to know what the prospects are for this long-awaited fix?!)

Hello, albiong22718917

I am advicating for this. Again, I am not on the team. I can only voice concern about the issue. The decision is in the hands of the product management. Sorry for the frustration. 

 

Thanks,
Kevin

And respectfully, I see no difference really between different firms. Both have things that some users feel are ignoring those user's needs. It's Life. Sucks at times, yup.

 

And as an active participant in both ponds, there are issues for both firms. Is it maddening? Sure, especially if you're someone who's got stuck with an issue.

 

And as noted, I agree this  behavior in Premiere should be changed. I have posted about this myself, and have upvoted every Idea post requesting it be changed. Period.

 

That said, I make no excuses, for any of the company's making the hardware and software we all use, as explanations are not excuses. I do explain things at times. It does not mean I agree with, sympathize with, or excuse anyone. I do separate my feelings from those that others would have. As we are all different. 

Everyone's mileage always varies ...
