Cannot add a Description to a folder/bin

If I click on the Description field of a folder, a box temptingly appears, but it's impossible to type anything into it. I'm sure I'm not alone in wanting to add a description to folders/bins in the Project Panel (exactly as I can add a description to anything else in PPro's Project panel). It's been impossible to add a description to a folder for many (all?) versions of PPro. Maybe it's "as designed", but it's not logical or useful. It's exactly the same if I show the "Comment" column.

 

Let's have describable bins, please!

    @hellopaul4,

     

    I'd ask for this to be moved to be an "Idea." I'd upvote it!

     

    It is clearly as designed, except for the fact that if you click on one of those fields, a box shows as if you can enter something.

    Hi @hellopaul4 

    You can change and personalize the folder names in Premiere Pro. We could see if there is an issue or a potential problem with what you are describing if you could leave a full bug report like this How do I write a bug report ? That will help us get more info on your particular issue. I would close the project start a new one and see if you still can not label your folders as well. 

    Let us know if you have any luck.

    Thank you

    Ian
