Hi guys, ripple delete there are some times that i cant use it. Some times it happens from a poin and on. Does it have something to do with having all the clips united wihtous spaces, or putting the workare bar in a specific point?

Thank you

The following worked for me in Adobe PR CC: Remove any nearby audio tracks. (Copy them to another place, so you can bring them back in later). Then delete them from their original position. Try to ripple delete again.

When I ripple-delete, all track-keyframes for " track volume" shift accordingly, as they should, to the new place in time.
However, all track-keyframes for the "panners" (Rt Lft, Front Rear, Center and LFE) they do not shift to the new place in time, in other words they remain in the same place as before.
What am I doing wrong??????

1-The Keyframes that move are from the "Volume Tracks" (The issue does not concern Clip-keyframes)

2-All my tracks are unlocked

When I apply Ripple Delete:
Clips-and their "Clip Keyframes"-shift fine. (CLIPS ARE NOT THE PROBLEM)
Tracks and their "Track Keyframes" do not shift (with the exception of Volume Track*).

To summarize:
The issue is with the Tracks and not with the Clips:
Clips move fine.
Volume Track moves fine.
Right and Left Panner Track do not shift
Front and Rear Panner Track do not shift
Center Panner Track do not shift
LFE Panner Track do not shift

Anyone knows what am i doing wrong? Please help. Is there a patch for this? A plug in that fixes the issue? I DO NOT UNDERSTAND.

To be honest, I'm surprised any track keyframes move. I would not have expected them to.

I've not seen any Track Keyframes move at all. Maybe I missed some? That is why I always wait until the very end, to add those, and then charge for re-doing them, should the client change the edit.

Will have to look more closely at ALL of them next time,

Not all clips necessarily come after. Some may be on top of, extending to the left of.

"You can however avoid that by locking tracks that have no room to move and then ripple delete."

But then its no more a ripple delete but just a simple delete.

But i will see that thing about the room.

But how can there not be enough room for the clips that are after the clip you want to ripple delete?

They will simply move back to recover the empty space!

I've seen some strange things with ripple trim and ripple delete before, sometimes a simple reboot solves it, some are persistent with a project but go away if I import the project into a new project. Some just never go away. At the end of the day, I work around it.

For example, I had an audio clip on Track 3 recently that would not ripple when I ripple trimmed a clip on Track 1 (video) 4 minutes ahead of it on the timeline. However, when I performed the first trim, and then did another very slight trim (say, maybe 4 frames or 4 seconds) it suddenly rippled. No reason why that would happen (very simple timeline, nothing blocking the clips on any of the other tracks), but there it was anyway, trimming on the second try (with various attempts at different durations of trim, too).

I'm sure there is a situation or certain setup of my files and combination of edit points that is triggering this bug once in a while, but I don't know exactly what it could be or why it would happen. Haven't had time to really dig in and see what the commonalities are yet.

Along those lines, I had a faulty left-Ctrl key on an earlier laptop. Sometimes it worked, and sometimes it did not. My solution was just a new laptop.
