Hello, I've been working on an edit and out of nowhere my Motion and Opacity modules are missing from the Effect Controls Panel in Premiere Pro. This happend only to footage already in a timeline. If I import or create new clips/layers, those new ones DO have the Motion and Opacity modules. I tried looking for help online but the fixes I found did not resolve the issue, including reseting the preferences of Premiere Pro, Resetting Workspace Layouts, etc.

Please help.

Workaround for now is to add adjustment layer to the timeline. Use effect distort -> transform.

In the Effect Controls panel, click the Filter Properties icon located at the bottom right corner. Then select Show All Properties to make the Motion and Opacity sections visible again.

Same problem here. You all realize people use this for work right?

 

How you could push a release with this kind of issue is beyond me.
