Since PPro 2019 when trying to rename an item in a bin, the text just disappears. No cursor or anything. If I blindly type in what I think is the box, it will accept the modification, but I can't see anything as I type.

Tried resetting prefs to no avail. Thought it might me the appearance settings just happening to match a shade of gray, but that wasn't;t it either.

PPro 13.0.2, Mojave 10,14,2

Resetting to saved layout in the workspaces fixed this for me (Windows > Workspaces > Reset to Saved Layout)

Was that reset to an Adobe workspace or a custom WS?

I undocked the panel, and then I could change the name, see the text and see the curser.

I have this problem as well, undocking the panel did not solve it. Closing and opening the program did not solve it either. Does any one have a fix for this?

I too have this problem. All these quirks in Premiere are very frustrating.

I'm having this same issue using 13.1.2, Windows 10, Quadra P2000, using CUDA. Any solution yet? I understand this probably only happens on old files. I reuse a template, so all of my projects are from "old files."

So you have a project file as a template?

If so, that's a smart idea. However, don't just open that project for in a newer version of Premiere. Navigate to it in the Media Browser and select/import that project file.

Then do a save-as to your template name for this version of Premiere.

Then start working your new project.

UPDATE This only seems to happen to SOME projects. Even more infuriating/frustrating.
