Question

Legacy Title tool: Why unilaterally delete tools without checking country usage? I am so angry.

Hello. I work as a video editor for a company in Korea. I have a question about the legacy title.

Video companies related to Korean YouTube channels and I have only used legacy titles.

I know Korea is a country that uses Adobe programs a lot. Why didn't you check each country's usage? I'm so curious and embarrassed why you decided to delete the legacy title tool right away.

Wouldn't it be different from country to country? Consider deleting the 'Legacy Title Tool' again. Please. Now we won't be able to work for the company anymore.

Please, I beg you, it's a matter of our livelihood.

Adobe is a very famous company. Don't we need to check this to become a more global company?
I'm so frustrated and angry. Please think about it again.

The 'Legacy Titler' has been scheduled for EOL ... removal ... for several years now, just like David says. There's nothing 'quick' about it. I expected it to disappear a couple years ago, personally.

 

The code is ancient, and there's very few things you can do in that tool you can't do as well or better in the EGP.

 

It's a different process, but ... it's new code. I wish they had a shape library but you can create shapes pretty easily. And there's a couple gradient things you can't quite mimic, plus no crawl option for text scrolling across the bottom of the screen, you have to set that manually.

Sorry to hear this is causing issues, but the Legacy Titler wasn't deleted immediately. It's been communicated that this tool was eventually going to be replaced, ever since the Essential Graphics panel was introduced and the titler was renamed to add "Legacy" to the old workflow. When you open an old project are you given the option to upgrade the titles as specified in this article? https://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/upgrade-legacy-titles.html

You should also be able to go to the Creative Cloud Desktop app and download Premiere 2022 to get the Legacy Titler back, but I'd strongly recommend you upgrade to the current workflow using the Essential Graphics panel. It's much nicer to work with in nearly every case. You can find instructions on how to install the previous version of an app here: https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/using/install-previous-version.html
