Ripple Trim to Previous Edit to Playhead no longer trims 1 frame in Premiere 2022

Previously, if your playhead was at the beginning of a clip, you could press the Ripple Trim to Previous Edit shortcut and it would delete one frame of the clip. This no longer works in Premiere 2022.

Is this a bug or a feature? If this is a feature, a toggle would be much appreciated because I use this constantly.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

We have added the desired functionality, Ripple trim of first frame when you are at the head of a clip, as a new shortcut - Ripple Delete Head Frame. This is in the current Premiere Pro 22.5 Beta (build 032+) available in Creative Cloud.

Back by popular demand you can ripple delete one frame at a time with your preferred keyboard shortcut. To use it, set up a Keyboard Shortcut (Option-Command-K) and search for “Ripple Delete Head Frame.” Once you have designated your KBS, position your playhead before the extraneous frames, press your chosen KBS and delete one frame at a time until you land on your ideal first frame. Try it out and let us know what you think!

I've posted about this issue when I was using the premiere beta version a couple of months ago.

Can't belive they didnt fix it and put it in the official version.

I'm reverting back to the old version until they fix it.

Please fix ASAP, I use this feature more than a thousand times during a rough cut and so does many other people that I know of.

This was not a BUG, this was a FEATURE, a useful one too.

A question for Adobe developers: why did you create a Beta version of the programs?

Complaining to devs? I've told you before. Take your giant bold type and go here, Baffy: https://adobe-video.uservoice.com/forums/911233-premiere-pro 😉

Hi,
I also wanted to note how essential this "bug" was/is for a fast workflow in Premiere. Probably one of the futures I use the most. I personally won't upgrade to the next version of Premiere Pro until I can use this feature in the new version exactly as I do now. It would cost too much time and nerves.
Honestly, I'm also pretty disappointed about how you can remove such a vital feature without consulting the community. So far, every friend and colleague I've talked to about this feature has been like, "What? How could they just remove that?"
Since there was talk here about adding a custom hotkey to Premiere for removing a frame... that honestly wouldn't really help. I mean, it's really not that hard to program a custom hotkey that does exactly what ripple trim has done so far! But the problem is that you have to take your finger off the ripple trim keys (in my case q and w) every time!!!! That would add up to a lot more work and wasted time in the long run. I hope that the feature described by phatcorns comes back soon. I would be very happy about an option to activate/deactivate the feature described by phatcorns in the preferences!

PS: Also I think it would make sense if Ripple Trim Next Edit To Playhead would do the same as Ripple Trim To Previous Edit.... just in the opposite direction obviously.

The definitly need to fix this ASAP. This is easily my most used shortcut and speeds up my workflow an enormous amount.

How is there now option to delete/trim just one frame in front of the playhead!

I usually work with the Q and W key combinations, and I use the Ripple edit tool for adjustments. No problems

jskb,

Sorry, man. Can you upvote on User Voice? These are user to user forums and do not constitute an official bug report.

As a support rep., I can raise the issue, but to get a change going, we are going to need some upvotes. Our colleague posted a bug report. Have you upvoted yet? https://adobe-video.uservoice.com/forums/911233-premiere-pro/suggestions/44363268-cursor-frame-behavior-affecting-in-out-ripple-ed

To provide a bit of perspective: jskb, you (and others) are super clever to have even found this aspect of using the Ripple Trim commands. These Ripple Trim to Head/Tail commands were an add on to the original code only a few major versions ago. We didn't always have the feature. It is a godsend, I think, and is super popular.

Not sure where you learned this undocumented tip. A fellow editor? An article? You've got me curious, but I commend you. I honestly have never heard it before and I've read thousands of posts over the last decade. Here is the intended workflow from our Learn team, who work with the product team.

Again, I'll try to advocate for the User Voice post if I can. By the way, I am an editor, so I defintely understand about this. Changes to the app that alter your workflow is disruptive. I am sorry.

Thanks,
Kevin

I learned about Ripple Trim from this particular video in 2015: https://youtu.be/FvttfdbgLLM Totally transformed how I thought about video editing and I don't know if I would be a video editor if it weren't for this.

But as for the trick of being able to quickly delete one frame at the beginning of a clip using Ripple Trim, I just discovered that on my own as I used Ripple Trim. It's actually super handy and for those who have never used it, worth trying out if you still have an older version of premiere installed!

Hi phatcorns,

I believe this is a bug fix and now it doesn't behave the same way.

I am not on the product team, so I cannot foment change in this regard—you, and others on this post should definitely log this into User Voice. I like the idea of a toggle if you found the previous behavior useful. If you wouldn't mind placing or upvoting a feature request or bug report that covers this behavior, I'd be glad to upvote, as well as, advocate for that change given the chance.

I apologize for the issue. I will look into it further after the weekend when I get back to the office.

Thanks.
Kevin

I second this. Want it back to how it used to work. Something that was previously the tap of one key is turning into a process that needs both hands and using the arrow keys etc. My workflow is seriously hindered with this update.
