Set In and Out Points while Transcript Tab of Text Panel is active

Anyone else struggling with this? I'm going through source media, looking at the transcript... 

 

I click on a word and hit "I". My in point is set. So far, so good. 

 

I click on another word where I would like to set my out point, and my in point disappears. 

 

What I have to do instead, after setting my in point, is click on the source monitor to make it the active panel, then press spacebar to play until I reach the desired out point. This works... but not the way that would be effective utilization of the transcript. 

 

I'm on a 2021 16-inch MacBook Pro M1, Running version 24.6.3 (build 4).

To resolve this, disable the "Automatically Set In/Out Points" option in the Text panel (the two curly brackets located next to the filter icon in the Transcript tab).

When this option is enabled, selecting a word will automatically adjust the In/Out points to align with that word.

Thank you! The last couple months I was working mostly in After Effects, but coming back to Premiere for an assembly cut again today. I didn't notice that little button until you pointed it out... 

 

I also didn't realize that with the "auto in/out points" active, highlighting a portion of the text would set the in/out points accordingly. I'll have to try it both ways now and see which I like more! 

 

Thanks again.
