more than two sample video generations would be helpful.

Layer Order Flexibility in Adobe After EffectsOpen for Voting

I’d like to suggest a feature for future versions of After Effects that would greatly improve workflow efficiency when working with complex compositions. Currently, the layer order in the timeline is directly tied to their visual stacking order, which limits flexibility when organizing projects with many layers. My suggestion is to implement a feature that allows users to rearrange the layers in the timeline without affecting their render or visual stacking order (for example, allowing layer 3 to appear below layer 1 in the timeline view, even if it's rendered on top). This would enable users to organize layers logically—by type, function, group, etc.—without altering the final output of the composition. This is especially helpful for projects with dozens or hundreds of layers.One possible solution could be the implementation of an alternate view mode or an option to “decouple visual stacking from timeline order,” similar to how groups or tags work in other software.

It is hoped that the new decoder supporting NVIDIA 50 series graphics cards can be available as soonOpen for Voting

The NVIDIA 50 series graphics cards have been released for some time. The new video decoder supports 10-bit HEVC 4:2:2 hardware decoding, but the current version of the software does not support it yet. Could you please tell me when a version supporting this decoder will be released?

Allow Ultra Key effect to be assigned a shortcutOpen for Voting

It will be really helpful if we can be able to add "Ultra Key" effect as a shortcut. As when there are multiple footages in the same timeline that requires different ultra key settings, so instead of typing "Ultra" in the effects panel and dragging to the footage it will be really helpful if we can just select the footage and click a button with the specified shortcut of "Ultra Key" and apply it automatically. It will not only increase the workflow efficiency but also reduce manually typing or searching for ultra key in the effects panel and applying it manually. Hope you add this to the future updates so that we can also allow any effects from effect control panel to apply as a shortcut which will reallly speed up the workflow during edits. Thank you 

Feature request node on/offOpen for Voting

Allow nodes in the graph to be toggled off/on without breaking the data flow—meaning the input connection passes directly to the output of that node, effectively skipping its operation but not severing downstream links.

"Cooked" mode in DesignerOpen for Voting

The cooking process makes the reactivity of a graph significally slower than its "cooked" counterpart (sbsar running in other app than Designer). This makes the process of testing a graph (editing its parameters) much slower in Designer than in other platforms. I would suggest to add a "cooked" mode in Designer that would enable to test our graph with the best performance, provided the graph would not be editable in this mode. An alternative could be to open the cooked version in another app (Viewer?) with a single button click. I would like to avoid the tidious process of building the sbsar then opening another app and opening the sbsar.

Saving UI LayoutsOpen for Voting

Similar to Substance Painter, it would be helpful to be able to save UI layouts and designate which one you want by default.An example of this being useful is when using a single ultra-wide monitor I regularly switch between 50/50 split windows, and 70/30 split windows, and depending on which screen layout I'm using, is how I arrange/scale my Substance Designer windows.

Path tool painting in 2D/UV viewUnder Review

Preface: Before I decided to post the Idea, I had been searching for the answers and ideas published before. If someone did the highlighted query as the Idea and I haven`t noticed it, please forgive me for my inattention.Thesis: I propose to add the possibility of painting the Path tool in 2D/UV view.Arguments/ Why is this valuable?This feature will solve the list of problems:It will add the ability to work with intricately deformed/overlapped 3D mesh via an undeformed UV layout (image: Example_01);Consequently, it will eliminate the problem of unsmoothed/ unstraight paintings (image: Issue_01) owing to the ability to control the details via path and points(vectors);Create the ability to control the overall view of details and nondestructively edit the size and the shape of details, in 2D view.Best wishes,George

Lock panels size to avoid constant need to rearange workplaceOpen for Voting

I use AE every day for more than 15y and I realised there is one thing I really hate (ok, maybe one of two. second is endless  window menu when you have lot of comps opened and need to run script at the end of the list. Even "better" when you have more than twenty scripts installed).Everyday I literary cry and asking "why?!"My workplace looks like the first image. And every time I onen new viewer or just drag any panel to make it bigger temporarilly and return it back (comp panel up to show more layer, or viewer to see more, etc) it totally mess up my arangement and I need to fix panel sizes over and over, hundred times every day..I am used to use workplace presets, but it is not comfortable to wait until the whole panels setup load and draw. There should be icon on every panel to prioritize maintain its size, or just size all panels relatively to the one you resize, or maybe anything else, but actual state is something made me mad. Every time I change temporary my panels layout and returning it back I am ending with something like this (look at left side, the project panel, effect panel... stay stretched and need to be resize):So, please. Make the panels layout more smart to avoid needs repeatedly correct their size. If they everytime you change layout will tends to restore their initial position instead of staying at last position, it will be GOLD!

Support for batch exporting JPEG with HDR Gain MapOpen for Voting

Hi, Adobe Bridge team.Currently, when using the export button in the ACR view, there is an option for us to enable HDR output, as shown below.  However, when multiply-select photos in the Adobe Bridge grid view, and then right-click to export, the HDR output option is missing, which makes it impossible to batch-export JPEG photos that has HDR Gain Map metadata.  The only workaround to do this is to import those photos to Lightroom CC and then use Lightroom to batch-export the JPEG photos with HDR Gain Map, but it's not convenient, as this workaround creates two different versions of the photos: both in my local storage and in Lightroom CC. Hoping to add the support for batch exporting JPEG with HDR Gain Map. Thanks!  

P: Ability to Search for Photos with Multiple PeopleOpen for Voting

I’d love to have a way in Lightroom (cloud-based) to search for photos that include multiple named people together—for example, photos that include both “Penelope” and “Eli.”   Currently, typing multiple names into the search bar returns photos with either person, not necessarily both. It would be incredibly helpful—especially for families, event photographers, and anyone managing personal photo libraries—to have an “AND” function in People search.   This could be a simple Boolean search upgrade (e.g., “Penelope AND Eli”), or a UI option to filter by selecting multiple named people.   Thanks for considering this improvement—it would make Lightroom much more powerful for organizing and retrieving memories.

Can Adobe develop something like speakersplit.io ?Open for Voting

With all of the amazing ai developments - the enhance audio podcast tool is AMAZING!But since we film a live three camera "talk show" type setup with two speakers wearing lavaliers. We are painstakingly going through and disabling the audio track of whoever wasn't speaking in order to do a final "clean" using that tool.The podcast.adobe.com tool tries to "enhance" the audio of the other speaker whose audio is faint but still registers. As a result, simple wav exports of each lavalier are not possible.The main hesitation we have for using Speakersplit.io is ethics.Can you guys buy their technology or develop your own someday soon?I don't like the idea of running people's voices through that tool without their consent and without knowing that the company has the ethics around ai that adobe has...

Generative Fill Respect Selection CheckboxOpen for Voting

Currently when you make a selection and do generative fill it does not respect your selection, what it does is it generates from within the selection and blends in outside of the selection.It would be nice to have a checkbox or a way to configure generative fill so that it respects your selection. It would generate  and blend inside your selection instead of blending outside of your selection.I understand why it blends outside of your selection currently because it makes it easier for people to make quick selections and makes it more beginner friendly, but it would be nice to have a strict option so that professionals can apply it exactly where they want it. After all photoshop is still a tool to be used by professionals correct?

Adobe Audition needs backwards compatibility for older .ses multitracksOpen for Voting

I've been using Adobe Audition for 20 years.  I have projects as old as 15 years ago that I plan to revisit.  Unfortunately, I can no longer open them because they are .ses files while modern multitrack files are .sesx files.  Can we get something that has backwards compatitbility that could allow us to still open these .ses files?  Or at least can we still have a link to download Adobe Audition 3?  I would hate to lose access to these multitracks.

"active layer and below" for delete toolsOpen for Voting

Is it possible to have a "active layer and below" swatch option with the "delete" or "healing brush" tools, in the same way that this option exists with the "stamp" or "eyedropper" tools?Currently, only the "all layers" or "active layer" swatch option is available.

Word-by-Word Caption Issue in Premiere ProOpen for Voting

Hi,Why isn't Premiere Pro always able to create word-by-word captions perfectly?I know you can activate 'Maximum length: 7', 'Minimum duration: 1.2 seconds', and 'Lines: Single', but this only seems to work about 95% of the time. Why not 100%? Sometimes I still end up with multiple words (three or more) in a single caption.

Ai module: Visual Re-ArrangementOpen for Voting

Dear Adobe Premiere Pro Team,My name is Arseny, and I’m a multimedia artist and director with deep passion for emerging technologies. I believe we’re standing at the threshold of a new era — one where traditional video effects are giving way to generative AI modules. What once required crafting visuals by hand across dozens of layers and effects can now be reconfigured on a high level of abstraction using artificial intelligence.I propose introducing a new category of effects in Premiere Pro — AI FX — as part of the Sensei/Firefly ecosystem. The first module in this category would be: Visual Re-Arrangement.Concept: AI Visual Re-Arrangement EffectVisual Re-Arrangement is the first effect under the new AI Effects section. It allows users to transform the visual language of a video in post-production through advanced neural reconstruction.Features include:Style transformation (from film grain to neuro-impressionism)Medium conversion (video to animation, oil-paint, VHS, glass render)Camera simulation (wide-angle, handheld, drone flyover)Redesign of lighting and depthGeneration of new camera motion (dolly in, jitter, orbit)Location replacement without disrupting composition or timingPipeline (Technical Overview)1. Effect ApplicationThe clip is added to the timeline, and the AI Visual Re-Arrangement effect is applied.2. Auto-AnalysisA modular hybrid analysis begins:Video Structure Analysis:Optical Flow (Lucas–Kanade on sparse features or RAFT for dense flow)Video Depth Estimation (using models like MiDaS or DepthCrafter)Lighting Model and Texture SamplingScene Detection and Object Consistency Mapping via multimodal models (e.g., QLoRA or MiniGPT-4)AI Embedding Engine:A temporal video embedding is generated — a “smart code” of the clip’s content that allows for consistent modification (masks, motion, rhythm, structure).3. Prompting/Preset SelectionA panel appears for the user to either:Enter a custom prompt (e.g., “Make it look like 90s surveillance tape in rainy Tokyo”),Add an image as a style\medium referenceOr choose a preset (e.g., “Cyberpunk Tracking Shot,” “Handheld Documentary,” “Animated Sketch Look”).4. GenerationThe output is processed via the Adobe Firefly engine or an integrated backend:Cloud or local processing depending on the projectResult appears in a context window or replaces the current clipWith one click, the user can “Apply to Timeline” to insert the result directly into the sequenceMarket PotentialPremiere Pro sits at the center of a shift from editing to directing.This makes it a competitor to Runway, Pika, Kaiber, and others — but from within a familiar NLE environment.These are not separate exports, but generative effects integrated into the creative workflow.Core Technologies & Stack1. Video Understanding & Scene DecompositionOptical Flow: Dense optical flow (e.g., RAFT) used to analyze object movement and scene dynamics.Depth Maps: Scene spatial structure reconstructed via models like MiDaS, Depth Anything, or Boosting Monocular Depth.Semantic Segmentation & Object Tracking: Multi-frame consistency using models like Segment Anything (SAM) + tracking heads (e.g., DeAOT or Track Anything Model).Smart Mask Refinement: Some of existing Smart Masking and Mask Tracking in Premiere cand be repurposed and become part of the pre-analysis layer for precise AI-object interaction.2. Multimodal Video EmbeddingAn LLM module (e.g., QLoRA or TinyGPT) trained on video embeddings and visual-language alignments creates a contextual representation of the clip — the core layer interacting with prompts.Generates scene-level embeddings that integrate visual, spatial, and temporal analysis for stable, coherent outputs.3. Prompt Interface LayerNatural language support (based on Prompt2Vid bridge)Visual prompting (drag-and-drop images as style references)Extensibility through plugin/template creation for streamlined interaction4. Generative BackendIntegration with Adobe Firefly Video (upcoming) or a custom backend (e.g., Diffusion Transformer or AnimateDiff)ControlNet-like conditioning support (depth, pose, mask, style, flow)Optional fine-tuning on user-provided material for large projects (via cloud-based QLoRA adaptation)5. User Workflow IntegrationBuilt entirely as an effect inside Adobe Premiere, it works seamlessly with:Standard timeline systemAdobe Sensei APIDynamic proxy system (for heavy video workflows)Mercury Playback Engine (for real-time generation previews)6. Flexible Rendering OptionsLocal generation (GPU-assisted via TensorRT / ONNX Runtime)Cloud generation (via Adobe Creative Cloud Services)Render to context panel or directly replace the original clip in sequenceWhy Adobe?You already have Firefly and Adobe Sensei, and partnerships with Runway — but there’s currently no systemic support for generative video editing inside Premiere.Your strengths in UI and performance will outpace GenAI startups.You could become the first to offer tools for interpreting video — not just editing it.ConclusionI would love to share more — I’ve developed a series of concepts, including one I believe could transform the very logic of video editing itself. If this resonates with your team, I’d be excited to connect.Sincerely,Arseny

Automate to Sequence / Numbered ImagesOpen for Voting

It would be useful, if there was an option to automatically order numbered images in the correct order, when importing a folder of images, named as diagram1, diagram2,....diagram10, diagram11 and so on. Currently, the user has to click through the images in the folder in the correct order up to 9, then continue from 10... Thanks.

P: Detect ‘Monochrome” and ‘black and white’ in cloud-based searchingOpen for Voting

I am using Lightroom v10.3 9B89DD/197. on iPad (11" M1 Pro iPadOS 18.4.1). I am trying to find the 'monochrome' or 'black and white' images in my collection and it is only returning a few dozen or so of the hundreds of images I have that are monochrom/black and white--not simple 'desaturate', but properly made using Lightroom's own B&W 'button' under the colour panel. These images are from various camera models: Nikon D800E, Sony RX-10iii, Olympus/OM System OM-1, for e.g. To reproduce the issue: In 'All Photos', I begin typing in the search field (magnifying glass at top right) "mono—" and select 'monochrome' from the drop down list. Only a few dozen images show. I clear that search then start typing 'black—' and choose 'black and white' from the drop down list. Again, only a few dozen image show--the same image. Perhaps I am expecting too much from the Sensei search, but it should be able to recognize monochrome images or, at the very least, choose those images that have been created using the B&W button. Please address this issue and rectify it. Thanks.

P: Fluid placement of watermarks without a presetOpen for Voting

Hello I am a user of Adobe products I use Lightroom classic and Photoshop mostly. My question is when in watermark editor, I should be able to move my watermark anywhere in that photo and not have to create a preset. Not every photo requires a watermark to be in the same position. When I post from my business page I like to show the quality, but that sometimes leaves it open for people to steal that photo but at least if I can move my watermark and position it in that photo close to the subject at least if they steal, they're gonna know who took that photo. But the way I do it now I have to create a preset every single time so now I have a list of presents to go through every time which slows down my work flow time is money. If there is a way that can be done already and I'm missing it. Someone please let me know. Thank You.  Michael Hofmeister

Adobe Premier Please Read This Suggestion/Plead For Your Next UpdateOpen for Voting

Please include a skin filter in effects, so that when I film old professors, they are not depressed when they watch their videos. There is only so much that lighting can do. Also, if you can include in that filter a way to tweak skin tone and remove green spill from faces, that would be amazing.
