The menu commands 'Scale to Frame size' and 'Set to frame size' must win the award for the most badly named commands in Premiere Pro. I teach PrPro and they are almost guaranteed to generate a look of quizzical incredulity on any new users face when I tell them that the command with 'Scale' in its name doesn't adjust the scale parameter, but the one without 'Scale' in the name does...It's time to grab the bull by the horns and fix this.In addition...Frame sizes ain't what they used to be. 16x9 isn't the one and only. We have social media: Square formats, portrait formats, whatever format you like. These commands need flexibility for different formats.My suggestion:These commands are grouped under a 'Transform' sub menu as follows:'Set to frame size' is broken down into three components, named as follows:Scale to Fit FrameScale to Frame WidthScale to Frame Heightand, as a fourth sub menu entry...'Scale to frame size' becomes 'Resample to current size'...and this works in a slightly diff

I think a useful feature would be the ability to click and drag with the razor tool and have that place a cut on every frame of the clip across the range where you drag the razor.

Often times I will apply default transitions or other transitions to multiple cuts at once, and occasionally I need to delete some of them or change their durations or other settings. This can be a pain because you have to SHFT-click each one and sometimes you'll accidentally select the underlying cut or click off it because they're tiny, and this will deselect everything and you have to start over. Very frustrating! An very nice upgrade would be to add an optional modifier key when using the marquee selection tool. So say if you held the "T" key while doing a marquee selection (or SHFT-T marquee to add to current selection), this would ONLY select transitions and not he underlying layers. This would solve all problems related to multiple-transition selection, deletion and modification. Please consider making this happen Premier team! 🙂

Adobe, it is long past time that this software's user interface get an overhaul, instead of simply adding new features each version. Other competitor's software has many modernization features that are lacking in Premiere Pro but add to their usability. I have collected a list of several issues which I think could be addressed as a starting point. Continuous background autosaving that doesn't intterupt my workflow with a message and progress bar every few minutes.Performance of the user interface seems tied to the back-end or bottlenecked in a way that doesn't reflect my computer's performance. I have worked on both high-end workstations and low-grade laptops, and oftentimes the simple act of clicking and draggin a clip, or extending/trimming a clip, in the timeline slows down the display update rate so that the timeline's display is refereshed maybe once every half-second. It is extremely frustrating when making small but critical adjustments in the timeline. I am not a comp

Is there a way to create captions that are similar in length and layout as the transcript? I would like multiple lines of caption and the transcript layout seems just fine.

Program Window update to incorporate "middle mouse button" functionality in the Program window. Giving the editor the ability reposition and select zoom level (like in After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, etc.). This would save editors an eternity of time.  This would elimainate the need to use the "Select Zoom Level" drop down box, as well as eliminate the use for the vertical and horizontal scroll bars. IE: Click and hold middle mouse button to reposition the "camera" (for lack of a better word) in the Program window.  IE: Allow us to create a shortcut with the incorporation of the middle mouse button."Zoom Monitor In" - (CTRL + Scroll up)"Zoom Monitor Out" - (CTRL + Scroll down) Editors currently have the shortcut of "Num+" and "Num-" to Zoom Monitor In or Out, but an option where our right hand would not have to leave our mouse, would be much more proficient. 

Hello, i wonder if exist somn eplugin bundle that can help in doing kind of visual art generative fx. If you know it, something like what Touchdesigner can do. For example generate noise, or different shapes, textures ecc... thanks

These bins are kind of just in the way and not usful for anyone looking to use only their own presets. It should be auto-added still but the ability to remove them shouldn't be greyed out.  

Within premiere pro we all use the tool for video editing. However, we don't have a way to remove dead air between talking bits. I'd like to suggest a add on for that or even a effect that we can use on our timeline. For example: If I were to record some voice lines and there seems to be gaps in the takes. I'd like to be able to remove them so I can listen to the takes a little easier. Being able to tell the effect to focus on, would help out drastically. Instead of making cuts to shorten the timeline.

There are so many workarounds and all of them are completely insane and even with a ton of steps, don't work with picture in picture videos unless they're rectangular.Literally just need a "Add stroke" or "Add border" effect where you simply pick the colour, and and pick the thickness of the frame / border. So simple. Thousands of us want it, and have done for a long time.Surely cannot be that complicated to do?

One of my favorite ways to edit in PP is through keyboard shortcuts, especially through the use of ripple trimming. However, ripple trims effect all other clips in adjacent timelines unless those tracks are all locked.  So I often find myself locking all other tracks to really get into the nitty-gritty of editing certain a-roll for example, or nest clips in a track first and make all of my edits in there so that I can work easier and quicker. Therefore, I wish there was a way to have the opposite of locking tracks. Something along the liens of a toggle option on the timeline that lets you JUST edit that one track without messing with everything else.

The premiere masking UI is unintutive and limiting. After Effects can be as simple (elliptical, rectangular and bezier) but also has a much more intuitive feel and more potential to be useful. Creating consistency between the two would help both experienced editors create better masks and allow for new users to feel comfortable once they begin to dip their toes in After Effects.  

OpenColorIO integration would open up a whole new world of color management for Premiere Pro. The new After Effects just received this update. 

I was a very bad editor and didn't correctly label a few nested sequences.  Is there any way to "reveal in sequence" or search for where it's been used?  I have A LOT of sequences, so it's not easy to look where it's been used. 

Do you have cloud service to process the project including recognizing mask area, subtract, mask path, mask feather, opacity, mask expansion and so on like we do the Conte-Aware fill functionality on our MacBook Pro.But, the existing functionality it should be better to keep and run locally for your customer(users).

It's been a long time for this one. I cannot upload my settings, and other users have experienced the same. It would be great if this feature worked!  

We really need the option for both, especially with more and more vertical content. Auto reframe isn't a solution because it adds tracking, and that's not always needed.  Thank you! 

Premiere Pro already has markers that are named.Please make it possible to export to MP4 and use those markers as segmented chapters in the timeline, using the marker names as the hover text.It requires extra steps to do that in YouTube, but I would like for Premiere Pro to be able to do it if the MP4 is not going to YouTube.Thank you!

①エッセンシャルグラフィックの境界線で奥行きやエッジなどレガシータイトルで使用できていた機能を使用したいです。過去にできていたことが一切できなくなり非常に困っています。 ②エッセンシャルグラフィックでテキストの一部分だけにスタイルを適用をしたいです。

When doing multi camera edits I am often using the pen tool to work with the audio edits. But when I try to switch tracks by clicking on the associated mini screen, the pen tool does not enable the track switch where the pointer and the cut tool do.  It is just inconvenient to have to change tools to switch tracks. I do not understand if the cut tool can switch tracks why the pen tool cannot.

Am I the only one who spends WAY too much time copying individual instances of closed captions text, feeding into a third party translator and pasting the translated text back into Premier? Can we get an extension or, even better, a native translator for auto-translating closed captions? 

Hello Adobe Community,Every once in a while I receive a survey from Adobe to answer before the software opens. I always answer it. They only allow so many characters in the comment section so I try to add new suggestions each time. Below in blue are some of my requests/comments. Maybe there's something I'm missing that is a solution? I am a self-taught Premiere Pro user of 8 years. I am so frustrated with this system. I really miss Final Cut Pro 7 (yes, I'm one of them :P) which was so much easier to use. I can't believe there aren't any more choices out there I can afford that work smoothly. I encounter big problems everyday with the Premiere Pro system that keeps me from working. It's not user-friendly and has a lot of bugs. Maybe I'm asking the world? But I'd expect, for the price, that this system would work much better. There are many things I like about Premiere pro, but the cons far outweigh the pros. That said, does anyone want to add to my list of issues? Here they are:1.&nbsp

Kevin, thanks for clarifying bug reports (How Do I Write A Bug Report? )   It strikes me that a long-standing issue with these kinds of reports is lack of information from posters. Your own post requests the following information be included: - Adobe Premiere Pro version number- Operating system - Windows or macOS, and version of those operating systems- System Info: CPU, GPU, RAM The "community guidlines" note above the posting form requests this: - Version of the app - Platform and OS version   I think Adobe could do themselves and their users a tremendous service by making it easier to provide this information. How about a one click button in Premiere Pro ("System Info for Bug report") that collects this information to be pasted into the form.   R.  

Frequently we're searching for a phrase and and copy a segment from my paper edit and paste it inside the window only to find out the paste went wrong so I have to edit the search. But there's such a teeny tiny search window. Yet there's alllllll that unused space to the right of it. I think the search window should be bigger and expand depending on how big you make the panel. Should be just a tiny tweak to the UI and yet so helpful. Please?

No question PP's ability to generate a transcription is great.But for many projects the transcription is inadequate to our needs. We work in mixed language interviews, interviews involving technical terminology, people thick accents, and more. For that reason we hire a professional transcriber who does an excellent job of getting around all these issues.From there we do a paper edit and then painstakingly search for the text by timecode. Digital Anarchy offers a plugin that is supposed to be able to do this. But it is slow and buggy (on my system anyway).We have tried having PP transcribe as welland then search within that.But there are too  many discrepancies to make it worthwhile. The missing link is in Adobe's hands. I don't pretend to know the nuances of code.But if AI can figure out what people are saying,then can't it figure out how to match up previously written text to the spoken word of an interview?  Thanks for
