This Action Will Delete Existing Keyframes warning... WHY?

Why is there a pop up warning when deleting keyframes in Premiere 'Pro'. Are Pro users not savvy enough to know what they're doing and need a warning EVERY SINGLE TIME we delete keyframes?

There is no warning like this in After Effects. Why in Premiere?

I've requested this be removed since CS5. How does this annoying pop-up still exist?

At least give a preference toggle to turn this off. Seriously.

Over 7 yrs, come on Adobe! Give your Pro users the benefit of the doubt in this 'Pro' application. YES I KNOW I AM DELETING KEYFRAMES.

BUMP - That warning is still disruptive, especially working on entertainment where every shot is animated. We're fine with being able to delete keyframes in After Effects without a warning.


And that effects window shouldn't be limited to the trim bounds hard spend a lot of time resizing that window or re trimming a clip to find previous keyframes (which we should be able to delete without a warning). Thankoooo!

Please for the love of all that is good in this world, give one person on the team the 10 minute job of adding a bloody "Do not show again" checkbox and calling it a day my god.

I strongly DISAGREE. That pop-up window has saved me MANY TIMES. And for those reading at Adobe, this goes to the heart and soul of the culture of the Premiere Pro use community. There are so many of us who are not nearly as advanced as the user who posted this comment. Trust me when I say, we users who are not as advanced are not being less advanced in order to anger users such as him/her who wishes that warning would go away. PLEASE KEEP IT THERE!! I have accidentally deleted keyframes MANY TIMES. That warning truly saved my efforts!! And the efforts of thousands of others who didnt post a response here.

+1. Just add a checkbox to not show the warning and move on. Years of my life back if you do this.

Just because you are not professional don't mean the rest have to lower to your hobbyist/noob level right? And the OP isn't asking to make this needless feature disable completely, but an option to not show again.

Even your reason is sound (which is not) your disagreement is senseless.

It's like typing on keyboard and the computer is asking is every letter you type what you want. Yes that might reduce many typo but at what cost?

@adobe never listens to their customers. What makes you think making a request is worth your time? They won't fix it. Just like they've never fixed captions.

Adobe, you're awesome and I luv ya.. but this has to be fixed. We are two decades into the new millennium. Turn off the **** warning already.

Surprised this hasn't been answered. Please Adobe even if the user deletes keyframes accidentally, there is an undo button and history of edits for a reason, even a simple option on the window such as, never remind me again would do.
