Discuss: New Restore Trim Selection feature in Premiere Pro (Beta)

Have you ever set out to make multiple edit point selections, only to accidentally click in the wrong place and wipe out all of your selections thus forcing you to have to go back and start the selection process all over again?  Well fear not my friends, because the beta now contains a keyboard shortcut called ‘Restore Trim Selection’.  

 

To access, open the keyboard shortcut panel (Premiere Pro menu on Mac, Edit menu on windows) and search for ‘Restore Trim Selection'.  Enter your desired keyboard shortcut (No shortcut is assigned by default).  Then when you make your edit point selections (hold down shift and keep clicking edit points in the timeline), if you accidentally miss the edit point and all your selections are removed, simply hit your keyboard shortcut and your edit point selections will be restored.

 

Things to note:

 

Restore Trim Selection restores only the last selected edit point(s), it is not part of the undo stack.

 

If you are in Trim Mode (Trim Edit Panel is present), hitting the Restore Trim Selection shortcut will restore the edit selection and return you to the trim mode.

This is something that has been available on Avid for years, and a great time-saver.

I hope it migrates to a full release soon.
