Workflow is key. A big obstruction at the moment is when wanting to assess transitions over a composition there is no way to select either a clip or a selection of clips and be able to preview entry, exit or cross. A simple toggle icon in the effects panel is all you need, when selecting the clips you desire to preview you could simply toggle an icon ‘In’ ‘Out’ ‘X’, then playback desired area and this will show the user how the transitions affect the composition. It also allows for quickly noting what transition works where.Effect controls should also reflect this feature and be able to apply changes across selected clips.Ideally a master preview selectable icon could allow for time durations to be selected based on the users needs.
Premiere 2026 projects cannot be downgraded for import to PR 2026 or earlier due to changes in the 2026 project data structure. Recent discussions about this have not yet been ported to the new forum. The primary previous feature request is here, but may be missing some interim posts. Also, it was primarily an explanation for how to use the non-Adobe methods for changing the project file version number. https://community.adobe.com/feature-requests-730/open-premiere-project-in-older-version-downgrade-project-version-1329162?postid=1329162#post1329162 At a minimum, there needs to be a method for downgraded a PR 2026 project to 2025. A longer term issue is the need, for years, for a more robust converter or for the After Effects procedure for doing a “save as” from a later PR version to some number of earlier versions. January 26, @hellopaul4 started a thread titled “Has version "2026" killed the ability to downgrade a project to a previous version?” The most important reply was by @Fergus H: “We are considering options for backwards compatibility, but we have nothing to announce at this time.We haven’t intentionally prevented downgrading tools from working with Premiere v26. As you likely know, those tools only change the internal version number without modifying the project data itself. However, in v26, the project data structure has changed significantly – largely due to the new Object Mask feature. Because of this, a v26.x file that has had its version number changed cannot be parsed correctly by v25.x or earlier, leading to the crashes or error messages you encountered.Fortunately, there is a simple remedy for your current situation: you can open the project created in the v26.x beta directly in the shipping version of v26.0. The file formats are identical, so you can move your work out of the Beta environment without needing to downgrade the file.” As Fergus says, The official Adobe recommendation for downgrading is XML export:https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/backward-compatibility.html However, when I tested, XML export/import was not working for me on Win 11. My reply in that thread included:“I tested this, and trying to open a PR 26.0.0 XML export in PR 25.6.4 crashes, as it does if creating a new project and importing it. It did import to a new project in 24.6.5, and, once saved there, I could open the PR 24 version in 25.6.4.”I have not retested this. Stan
I would like to suggest that in a future update, Adobe make available the ability to see the focus point in the picture. I understand there is download available in Lightroom Classic but I do not use Lightroom Classic. I prefer to organize my photos, therefore, just use Bridge in to Camera Raw.
I would like to request a shortcut key for the Object masking tool. Long-time user here; I've recently found that the Object masking tool is wildly useful. Not only for selecting objects but also to mask tedious details. It's improved considerable over the years and is now intelligent and accurate! I often use it instead of the brush tool and having a shortcut key would really expedite my workflow! Thank you for your consideration.
The rendering of moving images should be done in Adobe Media Encoder
when I hover over the program panel to scroll through the timeline with my scroll wheel on my mouse the update apparently makes it zoom into the video instead of scrubbing through the timeline. This is extremely frustrating. Zooming into the frame is never a feature I wanted so it's completely useless. I need to be able to scrub the timeline with the cursor over the video in the program monitor for more than one reason. One, to fine tune my cuts which is the majority of what I do when I'm editing all day. So, I need this to not be a problem I have to constantly deal with all day every day. The way it suddenly is now there's a fine, unseen line between where I can scrub the timeline and where it zooms into the video and half the time I cross that line and zoom into the video. I then have to select "fit" until it happens again and knocks it out of "fit" into some percentage. Another time when I need the program panel to scrub with the cursor over the video is if I'm moving an object to create keyframes. In this case, which is fortunately not often, it would be excruciating to constantly have to move the cursor down below the fine line and back up again.In short, I need it so the program panel scrubs the timeline as it does when I use the scroll wheel in the lower part of the panel, but I need it to do this even when the cursor is over the video in that panel. This changed sometime last year I think where it use to work properly but instead of scrubbing it frame by frame it like it does at the bottom of the panel it jumped around all annoying. Now it zooms into the video. It's like Adobe keeps ruining features with updates, like they're charging for updates that I don't want and only make editing harder.
I wish Bridge worked like Lightroom and allowed copying one image’s metadata into one or more photos, rather than having to use a template.
Bonjour,Vous avez récemment implémenté la synchronisation des mots-clés de LrC vers le cloud. J’attendais cela depuis longtemps et mes recherches sur mobile sont déjà grandement facilitées. Faute de hiérarchie, on arrive rapidement à un très grand nombre de mots-clés dans une collection même relativement petite. Vous serait-il donc possible de trier les mots clés par ordre alphabétique avant présentation de la liste ?Merci d’avance. Gilbert
When an object has a pattern fill, Illustrator should display the current pattern scale (e.g. 50%, 100%, 125%) and allow users to edit it directly. Currently, pattern transformations can be adjusted through Transform commands, but there is no obvious way to see the existing scale of a pattern. This makes it difficult to reproduce or maintain consistent pattern sizing across objects.
The powerful PS is really too bulky now.Maybe it’s time to make a compact version, say around 500MB, for us.🍒
I’ve been using a competing vector program for creating braille signage and wondered if there was any plans on having this be something Illustrator or Indesign could incorporate natively so that I can stop using the other program entirely? The workflow currently with adobe products is:go to some conversion web page like brailletranslator.orgpaste text in for the conversion, copy resultsgo back into my Indesign doc using a braille font with a CA Standard paragraph style (that I’ve created) This works for making 1-10 signs, but I’d prefer to have this be something I was able to merge from a CSV file as we typically need to create 100 individual signs at a time--which the competing program will also not do. It does however have a TEXT TO BRAILLE and BRAILLE TO TEXT option from the TEXT menu and a panel that looks a little like this:
Hi Adobe Team, I wanted to take a moment to share some honest feedback regarding Adobe Firefly’s image generation tool. Unfortunately, my recent experience has been quite disappointing. The overall quality, realism, and accuracy of the generated images fall far short of what I’ve come to expect from Adobe’s usually excellent creative tools. The results are often inconsistent, distorted, or poorly composed, even when prompts are clear and detailed. Compared to other platforms, Firefly’s current outputs feel unpolished and not suitable for professional or client-facing work. I’m a long-time Adobe user and genuinely want Firefly to succeed — it has so much potential. However, at this stage, it’s difficult to justify using it in a professional workflow. I’d love to see improvements in image quality, realism, lighting control, and prompt interpretation in future updates.Thank you for taking this feedback seriously — I know Adobe values user input, and I hope these concerns help guide future enhancements. Kind regards
There is a critical bug in the Premiere Pro / Media Encoder API (app.encoder) where attempting to programmatically queue a sequence using an HEVC (H.265) preset fails entirely. While the API seamlessly processes H.264, ProRes, and WAV presets, passing an HEVC preset results in a silent failure—Media Encoder simply drops the request without adding the item to the queue or returning an error code.Scope of ImpactThis is not an isolated plugin issue. This API defect completely breaks the core functionality of major industry-standard automation extensions, including: Excalibur (by Knights of the Editing Table) RenderSegments Blinkl.io Any workflow or custom JSX script utilizing the Adobe API to automate exports to HEVC is currently non-functional.The Inefficient WorkaroundCurrently, editors are forced to use a highly disruptive workaround: Trigger the scripted export using an H.264 or ProRes preset to successfully force the item into the Media Encoder queue. Manually select the queued items inside Media Encoder. Manually re-assign the desired HEVC preset to all items. For high-volume editors handling dozens of social media clips, localized versions, or review cuts daily, this manual intervention completely defeats the purpose of investing in automation tools.Steps to Reproduce (For Adobe Engineers) Create a custom export preset using the HEVC (H.265) format in Media Encoder. Use a CEP/ExtendScript workflow to programmatically queue an active sequence via app.encoder.encodeSequence(), passing the path of the HEVC preset. Observe Media Encoder: The application registers a command, but the queue remains empty. No error is thrown in the console. Repeat the exact same script using an H.264 preset path: The sequence queues instantly and perfectly. Requested ActionAdobe Engineering needs to investigate the backend handling of the encodeSequence method specifically when interfacing with the HEVC encoder wrapper. The API should treat HEVC presets with the exact same reliability as H.264 and ProRes.If you use automation extensions and have been frustrated by your HEVC queues failing, please upvote and comment with the extension you use to bring visibility to the Adobe API team!
can not uninstall neural filters (smart portrait, super zoom, etc.). Have followed forum instructions (~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/UXP/PluginsStorage/PHSP/[version-number]/Internal/com.adobe.nfp.gallery/PluginData ) find working beta version folder and remove everything in beta version’s plugindata folder neural plugins are still showing as installed
After Effects should allow users to add multiple instances of the same Layer Style—such as multiple strokes, inner shadows, drop shadows, glows, and overlays—and freely drag them into any order.Photoshop already supports stacking several instances of certain Layer Styles, but After Effects limits each layer to one of each style and uses a fixed render order. Currently, achieving these looks requires duplicating layers or repeatedly precomposing, which makes projects cluttered and harder to edit.Please make Layer Styles stackable, reorderable, and saveable as presets while keeping the original text, shape, or layer fully editable.
There's no posibility to edit the transcription, and there are several phrases that it misunderstood. So the translation is imposible due to those errors, hence, useless... Also, it will consume my credits for generation, but it dont tell me how many. So I dont know if it will rip off all my credits or use just a few. I wont risk it and not be able to work later properly.
I am migrating my multi-application video editing workstation to a new laptop. Not having a way to migrate my After Effects settings, workspaces, plugins, and scripts is incredibly disappointing and frustrating. It’s even more upsetting to see this used to be possible in After Effects a few years ago through the “Sync Settings” feature. Please add this feature back. Thank you.
All too often Lightroom shows a message like this one: That is of course not helping. After so many years on the market the developers should please finally include information about what went wrong, and where. Such errors are shown frequently when I attempt to move a series of images to another directory. It is also common to see the very same operation succeeding short after, without any action undertaken.
I've spent the past few years using Photoshop for work on a PC. As a part of my workflow (I make posters, social media images and such for concert venues), I'm constantly updating existing flat files: mostly .jpg images and flat PDFs for print. I've just switched back to Mac and I'm kinda shocked at the extra steps in a process that I do maybe a hundred times a day on average: PC (five steps)-Edit my .psd file-Click Save As Copy-Click on the file I want to replace (which, sensibly, changes the file format of my item)-Click Save-Confirm file quality and properties MAC (seven steps)-Edit .psd file-Click Save As Copy-Click on the File I want to replace (does not change the file format of my item)-Scroll and select the correct file format under "Format"-Click Save-Click through mandatory, non-removable dialog box warning that I'm saving over a file-Confirm file quality and properties I realize these are small steps, but the annoyance of having Photoshop nanny me through a process that I, again, need to do many dozens of times daily--it is a real bummer. I'd hugely appreciate that click-and-swap-file-types feature porting over to Macs, and... couldn't Adobe/Mac let me decide how dangerously I want to live when saving over a file? A "don't show this again" checkbox on that dialog (as the PC has) would really be a big help. Thanks!
We all agree its annoying now that Save A Copy has its own pull down, rather than just being part of the First Pull down. But what’s worse, For Mac users. if you Navigate to the Folder you are about to save a file to, and then realize you want to change the format, you click Save a copy, and then you are sent back to the original folder forcing you to navigate to your file destination again.Can we have original file Save As set up? it wan’t as good as a PC set up but it worked better than this two layer back and forth nonsense. Additionally, it’d be nice to be able to click on a file while your in Save As, and have that not only be the name of the file you want to save, but ALSO not only take the Extension of the name but also Change the extention of the file… it is beyond me that this has lasted like this for decades. Change the file type too when click on another file that has another format, this is standard practice elsewhere. thanks
There is already a request that Compare View allow more than 2 images.There is already a request that Survey View could zoom to 100%Either of these would make it much easier to compare the sharpness of multiple similar images.Firstly lets increase the number of images you can compare at once. But I’d like to go further, let us have a dedicated comparing workspace/tab/zone, a digital viewing booth. Let us Zoom All windows like in photoshop.Let us have the option to pan All windows.In addition to Lock to Zoom add a Lock to Subject: Let us have a mode where the zoom + and - is based on image content rather than just %. For example you take a shot on your 24MP Camera and your 108MP phone, locking the percentage zoom is not so useful would be amazing to get AI to show the same bits of the image at the same size on screen as say the “most selected” image.Let us have Focus and AI culling information conveniently to hand.In this mode lets have some sort of ability to hide images in the film strip, thinking you could be comparing similar images from different days, same location but a long way apart in the film strip, maybe you could add images to a deck of cards (or pile of prints) on the left, then decks for Keep, Maybe, and Reject on the right. Another cool feature would be to Select the images in Map Mode and create or add to a deck.
This strategy of dropping new features unannounced into a beta release isn't good enough. There seems to be a growing disconnect between users' needs and what Adobe is actually doing, and honestly it feels like the overall strategy is driven entirely by marketing people and has nothing to do with our requests or modern needs.Look at this forum, there are YEARS of requests ignored and bug reports coming up again and again. Every update just feels arbitrary at this point. The rotobrush improvements were great, but a long time coming. I often think AE is going to go the same way as Animate because it already feels like a legacy product because of such a profound lack of innovation - or maybe you have big plans for it? It would be nice to know.
