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 may be missing something here, but it seems to work fine for me. Opened a converted project, it worked, started a new project in v22 dropped in one clip and could advace a frame / Q to delete that frame, etc, etc.

(Ripple Trim Previous Edit To Playhead)

 

Win: 21H1, PP: v22

It doesn't work here with v22 (Windows 10).

 

Pressing Q used to delete everything from the beginning of a clip to the playhead, INCLUDING the current frame. Now the current frame is not deleted.

This means, when you're at the beginning of a clip and press Q 3 times it would trim 3 frames from the beginning of the clip.

Now it simply does nothing.

OK, with further playing I see that as true. However, I never used it before like that, I've always use 'Slip Clip Selection Left One Frame' to trim frames off the beginning of the clip like that.

 

 

I've upvoted the UserVoice thread, but I don't see any change to the way the cursor works, but in relation to the Q working as before.

Adobe really thinks this is a "bug fix" not a "bug". Arghh..

  • Ripple Trim shortcut will slip one frame.

Interesting. I obviously don't know their metrics on how many people use this, but this has become a vital part of my workflow over the years. Could we get a toggle for this, Adobe?

Great idea, phatcorns. A custom shortcut to restore the behavior you previously had. I would advocate for that.

Me too! Why did they change this? The shortcut now is useless for me

Thank you for the bug report/feature request. I apologize that this undocumented shortcut (that the product team felt was a bug) turned into a useful feature for a percentage of editors like yourself. As a support rep., I'll advocate for a solution for this. I hope we can get more upvotes to restore this ability. 

 

Take Care,
Kevin
