Slide Tool Bug

Hey Guys,

 

I've ran into an issue lately with the slide tool. I explain it in the attached video but to sum it up, it acts up and sometimes I can't slide into one direction of the other, despite the fact that I've got handles on both sides of the clip. 

 

Has anyone else encountered this issue? It drives me nuts. I'm back to lengthening manually and reposition the clip in the timeline which is so stupid and time consuming. 

 

I'm running the latest version of Adobe Premiere Pro Version 25.1.0 (Build 73) on an Macbook Pro M1 Max

 Running Mac OS Sequoia 15.2

 

Cheers,

 

David

It’s hard to say exactly what’s causing this, but here are a couple of things I noticed that might help narrow it down:

  1. It looks like your media and sequence frame rates don’t match, which could be causing some odd behavior.
  2. The timeline grid at the top also looks a bit unusual. If your sequence frame rate is 25 fps and you’re zoomed in to the frame level, there should be 25 grid points per second—but I’m only seeing 5.

If you haven’t already, try resetting your Premiere Pro preferences. This can fix glitches or GUI issues in many cases. You can follow the steps in this guide: How to Reset Preferences.

Hi @Procrastinator,

Thanks for the note. I have not seen that behavior. Is the clip in a nest or do you just have a green label on the clip? I hope the community can help. Sorry for the issue. Take Care.

 

Cheers,
Kevin

This is not the Premiere but the Photoshop (Beta) forum. Maybe some moderator can move your question to the proper forum, but I guess it'll be faster, if you just create a new post over there. 👉 Link
