Custom Snapping Rules and Presets

Premiere Pro’s snapping behavior is currently all-or-nothing. While snapping is useful, there is no way to control what elements snapping applies to in a flexible or context-specific way.

For example, when editing music and using beat markers, it would be useful to snap clips only to other music or beat markers, while ignoring everything else (clips, markers, etc.) without having to constantly toggle snapping settings.

Additional use cases:

• Ignore disabled clips when snapping
• Snap only to major beats, not every marker
• Ignore clips based on label color
• Ignore specific tracks

Requested improvement:

• Ability to define snapping rules (what snapping should and should not apply to)
• Ability to save these as presets
• Ability to toggle presets via keyboard shortcuts or automation tools

This would allow users to tailor snapping behavior to specific tasks (e.g., music editing vs dialogue editing), reducing friction and improving precision.

Thanks a bunch!
