Until now, I've never had a problem copy-pasting text from external sources (emails, Word docs, etc) into text boxes in Premiere. But suddenly, in the last few days, it's become impossible. Does anybody know why this is happening? Or have a solution?
Running Version 24.2.1 (Build 2) on a PC.
Answering my own question here (others may find it helpful). I followed @Kevin-Monahan suggestion for another problem I was having. That is, I tried resetting the preferences upon startup.
It actually worked. I can paste text again!
This success has come with a number of other problems, not least that Premiere is running infinitely more slowly now. I'd screenshot all the different panels in the Preferences dialogue box so that I could get back to my usual settings, but there were other things that changed in the reset, which I was not expecting:
- proxy view switches off. Make sure you turn it back on.
- workspace preferences will need to be rebuilt
- starting the program goes into the 'Learning' mode and workspace, and the list of recent projects you've opened is no longer there.
- and keyboard shortcuts has reverted to default. If you're planning on doing this, make sure you save your custom keyboard layout!
