Feature Requests

I'm sure I would be sick to my stomach if I could somehow know how much time I've wasted resetting the program monitor's zoom to "fit" after I accidently adjusted it. Because for some reason we decided that scrolling over the monitor just HAD to zoom in.   No one asked for this feature. It doesn't improve my efficiency. It just makes me mad. PLEASE just let me disable it or lock the zoom on my program monitor. Also probably fire whoever made this decision to begin with.    Sorry for the aggressive post. I'm at my wit's end with this 😞 

Hi Adobe Team, I’d like to suggest an improvement to the Undo behavior in Premiere.When performing Ripple Trim to Playhead Previous (the Top and Tail functions), the CTI moves to a new position after the action. When I then hit Undo, the edit itself is correctly undone however, the CTI does not return to its previous position. It remains at the position it moved to after the ripple trim downstream.I understand that with Ripple Trim to Playhead Next (Tail), the nature of the ripple operation pushes the timeline downstream, so the CTI stays in place.However, this logic doesn’t really apply in the same way to Ripple Trim to Playhead Previous (Top). When undoing that action, it would be much more intuitive for the CTI to return to its original position before the trim.In practice, this is quite frustrating because I have to manually navigate back to the exact same spot each time before retrying the edit. When working quickly, this noticeably slows things down.In other NLEs like Resolve and

Sometimes you want to edit a short video for Instagram or YouTube, an automatic editing feature with templates based on what you're going to edit would be very welcome. Templates like sports, nature, fashion, corporate, birthday, holidays would be a very welcome feature. Sometimes you just want to do a quick edit, and an automatic editing feature selecting the template would help a lot.

Na correria do dia a dia, na hora de exportar um video, que está com tudo pronto, escolho as configurações de vídeo e renderizo. Mas depois percebo que o vídeo exportou sem a lengenda. Isso é extremamente irritante, sobretudo se o vídeo é grande e demora para ser renderizado. Isso tudo, porque a legenda não está ativa na aba de exportação. Mas não faz o menor sentido ela estar desativada, uma vez que a legenda foi criada no projeto e está ativa na timeline. É contra intuitivo. Acho que poderia estar desativada na aba de exportação apenas se na timeline a legenda está desativada ou inexistente, caso o contrário, everia estar por padrão ATIVADO. Eu já cheguei a fazer uma postagem e só perceber depois que estava sem legenda.

Slow down the release cycle.  Spend the time fixing the years of bugs instead.  Reliability and compatibility > broken new features and system wide slowdowns 

Reverse Match Frame should work in a production the EXACT SAME WAY that it works in a regular project. I should be able to Match Frame from a sequence in Project A, and Reverse Match Frame to that same footage in a sequence in Project B. I legitimately don’t understand what the technical limitation is here. Both sequences are linking to the same footage from the same media project within the production. I see that there are some very old requests for this feature, so I apologize for being redundant. But that just highlights how insane it is that it doesn’t exist.

What I really don’t understand is why Align tools are not in the text group and are at the bottom of the Properties page in the Align and Transform, and in the Effect controls panel Align is absent at all. Don’t get me wrong, I totally understand that Align in the Align and Transform group is for aligning all layers, but truly, how often do you align other layers and how often - text layers?I suggest that the Align tools should be added to the Text properties both in the Properties and Effect Controls tabs somewhere here:This way you won’t have to collapse the text panels or scroll all the way down to the Align and Transform.

Hello,I would like to report a workflow issue introduced in Premiere Pro 2026 regarding timeline thumbnails.In Premiere Pro 2025, when stretching or trimming a clip on the timeline (especially long-form footage), the video thumbnails remained visually stable. Even when thumbnail display was enabled across the clip, they did not dynamically refresh or “scroll” during trimming.In Premiere Pro 2026, when I stretch a clip on the timeline to quickly locate a moment within a long recording, the thumbnails now dynamically refresh and scroll in real time. This creates constant visual movement inside the timeline itself.For long-form editing (40+ minute timelines), this behavior is:• Very visually distracting• Disorienting while trimming• Uncomfortable for precision editing• Slightly heavier on performance during rapid scrubbingI only want to see image updates in the Program Monitor — not continuously inside the timeline thumbnails.Is there currently a way to disable dynamic thumbnail refresh a

I have a suggestion on the AI Search function in Premiere 2026. Right now the only way to use the Search function as a global search through your media\SFX library (which I do) is to have this whole bunch of materials in a separate project and load this project into the one you wanna have the media in and search through.What if there was a button in the Search menu to store the analyzed media as a local base somewhere on your drives in order to be able at any moment in any project load that database and search through it and add found media into the current project even without loading this whole bunch of files into it?As I see it is, as I mentioned, a menu item to save and load the search results as a database without loading the files into a project, but when you found and chose the needed file from the results, it loads into a separate folder in the Project bin or just in the root (it should be an option too). It's high time to make AI work the way it's supposed to.

This is a feature that is available in DaVinci Resolve colour management for editors working on colour correction for DCI output (DCP creation). 

When I hover of the track name here on the Audio Track Mixer, and maybe other panels that do this, can you please make the tool tip say the full track name and not literally ‘Track Name’ which is silly 

I'm reaching out to the Adobe community to gather support for reinstating the Essential Graphics panel in Adobe Premiere Pro 2025.The removal of this feature has disrupted many users' workflows, including mine. I relied on Text templates for efficient editing, and the new Properties Panel does not offer the same functionality. This change has made managing text updates cumbersome.If you share my concerns, please take a moment to vote for the return of the Essential Graphics panel. Your support can help us advocate for this essential feature that many of us depend on for our projects.Thank you for your understanding and support!

Simple way to batch export all clips on a timeline, option to export blank space also, similar export media window to designate preset for export, etc.

I’ve just had to deal with a project that used very few clips, but they were very long with many different moments in them.    I added many markers throughout the clips thinking I’d base my workflow around those markers.   I then opened the “Markers” window in the UI imagining that this would be the core tool to get my markers into timelines.  But how wrong I was, this window is next to useless. Much to my surprise the Markers window in the UI is incredibly underpowered.    It doesn’t even open the source monitor if it’s not already open on that clip so you can’t even orientate what your source clip is using this interface.  The changes below would be incredibly quick to make and genuinely allow a whole new workflow and way of working purely with markers that I think many would find useful.   Make the source monitor load the clip when we double click an item in the Marker window.    Currently if the source monitor is closed we don’t even go to that clip and don’t know which it is!   If

Do others agree that it is a great idea to have an easy access field on the timeline to put video and audio transition frame number? Currently, we have to go into a preference submenu. This seems cumbersome. It is a number I have to change often. Does anyone feel the same way?

Hi Adobe Team,It would be incredibly helpful to have a temporary drag-to-zoom action in the timeline, especially for those of us working primarily with a pen and tablet. Ideally, this would be something you trigger with a shortcut, drag across a section of the timeline with the pen, it zooms into that region, and then you’re immediately returned to whatever editing tool you were using before. Not a dedicated zoom mode, more of a quick, repeatable one-time action.A marquee-style approach — zooming into a drawn region — or behaviour similar to Premiere’s Zoom tool already points in the right direction and can effectively emulate this kind of interaction. The key difference is that these approaches leave you in the Zoom tool after the action is completed.Zooming is usually just a momentary navigation action before making a selection, trimming, or performing an edit. Having to manually switch back to the Selection tool each time interrupts the flow.Thanks!

We are using the program window both for editing and watching/monitoring. It is more efficient than using the playback second window because program window lets you to control and work on it. However, this window cannot be minimized and you have to move or resize it everytime you need to check something in the background. We need the ability to minimize for the program window.

When writing captions, I often use the ctrl + backspace command to erase the full word behind the caret. However, Premiere does not recognise this command and instead makes a little box which I now also have to erase. I just jumped over from YT's captioning system due to its clunky nature, and this issue is the only one I have since the move. This is an issue sometimes in certain software, and I hope it's not a difficult fix 🙂  1. Type some text in the captioning tool2. Have the caret amongst the text3. Press ctrl + backspace- expected outcome: Word to the left of caret erased (and if keys are pressed down longer, the next word and so on)- actual outcome: Little box character is typed to the left of caret Premiere Pro Version 25.0.0 build 61Windows 10 EnterpriseVersion 22H2OS build 19045.5011

For years now, I've lived with Premiere Pro rendering "previews" of all the audio files in the entire timeline when I simply want to output just a short work area, but why? I don't get this behavior!I'm working on a 90 minute film but when I export a short work area I have to either wait a massive amount of time for Rendering Required Audio Files that are not in the work area to finish or create a subsequence of that work area, which renders very fast (but that's a multistep workaround).Image shows a 1 min 38 sec work area with about 75 audio clips to create previews of 2500 audio clips requiring an hour. Seems like Rendering Audio Previews could be done in the background rather than waiting until the moment a quick render of a litle work area is needed.I've lived with this weird, annoying, time-suck for years.Anyone know why?

Professionals do not keep their assets on the C drive. Adobe has always recommended against it. Searching the C drive takes longer than any other drive. This makes locating take astronomically longer than it should. I’ve attached a quick video that demonstrates most of what I’m talking about. EXCLUDE DRIVEIt’s a cool new feature to search the other drives after searching the selected drive. But we need to be able to to exclude certain drives. SKIP AND RESUMESometimes I’m searching for an asset and this new feature will find one with the same name. There isn’t a way to tell the search “no, this isn’t the file, keep searching” or essentially “skip & resume search” or “skip and keep searching”. Being able to exclude C drive would be awesome. Being able to exclude whatever drives or folders we want to choose would be the best. This is a big deal to me because I'm relinking years of projects that now have assets on a new RAID I spent a month and a half setting up. I need link media to n

It would be great to have the Adobe Express' ai animated captions system integrated into Adobe Premiere Pro.It would save much time since captions animation in Premiere Pro still doesn't have the ability to highlight words as the speaker talks. That's a very popular feature seen in social media, and having to export from premiere pro and then upload again in adobe express in order to do that is not a good workflow.Adobe express editor is a great idea, but still slow and limited compared to Premiere Pro, so it would be great to have this feature inside Premiere.

Hi Adobe Team,Many of us use the “Move Playhead to Cursor” function constantly in Premiere, especially when working on large timelines with many tracks. It’s incredibly helpful because it lets me avoid having to travel all the way up or down the interface just to grab and drag the CTI. Being able to jump and scrub directly from wherever my pointer is saves a lot of time and keeps the workflow focused.In Avid, the timeline feels more “open” in the sense that you can move around it very freely unless you’re in a specific selection mode. Premiere, on the other hand, keeps you effectively in a selection-based interaction all the time, which is why “Move Playhead to Cursor” becomes such an essential tool for navigation and scrubbing.That said, I’ve noticed the behaviour can feel quite jerky when scrubbing while holding the command. It seems to repeatedly re-register the action instead of behaving like a continuous, fluid motion. Ideally, it would respond as a single activation, and then whi

When dragging the ends of an already trimmed clip, we should see a ghost, low intrusive overlay that shows where the true end or start of the clip is. Like in the snapshot, I thought PP was doing this with that little dark grey bar to the left of the nested clip, (“oh wow a feature I didn’t know about!”) until I realized that wasn’t the start of the clip- the start of the clip is where it’s shown. PP must have been glitching with that grey bar. 

When you’re text editing, stopping to do something again is time consuming. I am talking about the pauses that stay in when you cut out a section of video via text. 98% of the time it’s something that could’ve been removed. I cannot run the filter “pauses” because it will chop out important audio pauses I need while I’m showing a product. image below is an example. this is 2 seconds of dead space that stayed in after I cut a mistake out. I have to go back, highlight the two ellipses, and delete again. I know this is not recommended for all, but I would love some sort of setting that says “Don’t leave open spaces after a cut”. I put in a suggestion last year about making the pause length more robust - where it would remove x.x second (short) pauses, but anything over that would be preserved. This setting could add a option that says “x.x space left when deleting words or sentences”. If I miss this correction, it sounds and looks like this:  

It’d be great to be able to rename a track and have the name be visible even when the track is minimized down to its shortest level. A final picture lock sequence might have 20 video tracks and 40 audio tracks. It can be wonderful to name an audio track “SFX1’, “SFX2”, etc. However, currently, to be able to see the track name, I have to heighten the track four steps. With 40 audio tracks, it can be really easy to miss something that’s on track 39 when I’m looking at track 12.It’d be nice to be able to call video tracks “GFX”, “VFX”, “L3”, “Subtitles”, etc. and not have to heighten four steps.
