Premiere Pro V 23.4 Issue for Copy and Paste

  • May 19, 2023

If using command+C to copy and command+V to paste, Premiere will not paste the material onto the highlighted track as in previous versions.  So if I use this method to copy a clip on V1 and paste it to V2, it will always paste the video to the track where the original clip originates.  Now, if I copy the video on track one using command+C but I paste it using the drop down menu, then the clip will paste to the selected track.

 

Thank you for checking this out.  I use this a lot and hope it can be resolved.

    This is a preference that we changed a few releases back.  Most users were confused about pasting and track targeting and expected clips to paste to the same track they came from.  But you can change it back to how it was in the keyboard shortcuts to follow track targeting.

    Hi @anthony_gc,
    Since this is not a bug, we are closing this case. it's more of a new behavior for an existing feature. We'll move this post from the Bug Reports forum to the Discussions forum so that others may benefit.

    Thanks for your post.
