Premiere Pro (Beta) v24.1.0.38 doesn't allow Import, New Bin, New Item, etc. in Project Panel.

The options are greyed out, both in project panel (right click) and in File - New menu.

I hadn't noticed the Import being greyed out. I commented in this bug reported by another user, but yes, looks like it started with Build 38. Still present in 39.

Workaround, select an item in the Project Panel:

Also no new sequence.

Yes, not only the adjustment layer, but also creating a sub-sequence, a sequence, a new bin, etc... but highlighting something in the project panel seems to reactivate things again, its almost that premiere doesnt recognize that the project pannel is selected until something is highlighted.

Have a work around, but it`s annoying ... creating a sequence while importing material, then duplicating ... This started only with the latest update ... Can create a bin using the icon on the bottom of the project window ... but not with right click or menue ... In Avid it`s sometimes because of corrupt user settings .. Can someone help, please??

Same - I can create a new sequence from a clip but the "sequence" option is grayed out if I want to do it from scratch. Just updated to Beta 24.1

Same here, but if you create a folder I believe it will let you import
again.

There are instances where Import is not working. It is greyed out.

I have a project that's 3 years old and has been updated to newer versions as the betas have progressed. It has 43 bins. Today I can't add a bin.  Is there a theoratical limit to number of bins???

 

Steps to reproduce:
    1. Open an updated legacy project with 43 bins

2. Right click blank space in project window

3. Try to add a bin 
Result: ..."New Bin" is grayed out
Expected: ..."New Bin" to be available

 

Workaround:  None.

I noticed this yesterday in Build 38. Have not tried in 39 which I just updated.

 

I reset preferences and clear the cache when I run a new Build for the first time. And it was in a new project. So I think it is a bug.

 

Edit to add: same in Build 39. Win 10. New Bin is greyed out. New Search bin works by clicking the icon once search text is added. "New Search Bin" in drop down stays greyed out.

It only works when an asset is highlighted in the Project window.

Looks like a bug.

Build 38.
