BUG: Timeline dragging does not show a wireframe of clip position

See attached video. In one of my projects, performance in general is particularly bad (4k media mixed with mp4's in timeline I believe is the problem). But when you select clips and try to move them around in the timeline, the clips remain where they were shown. The clips are being moved, but you can't see them. Definitely a bug.

This is happening to me as well! I was experiencing this issue because of a nested layer. not sure why but when I delete the nested layer I no longer run into this bug, although when I go to make another nested layer I experience it again.

I wanted to report that I had a file corrupt on me, the same one where this bug was happening. I actually highly doubt that it was related to this bug specifically (I was also having trouble with the timeline freezing and not letting me click on anything), but I still wanted to comment here and warn people in case they want to move their project to a new file when this happens, just in case.

Hey guys, massive kudos to @Alex Fritz, his proposed fix worked for me!
Go to Sequence > Render Audio and it cleared out for me.

I had to go into my nested sequences and "render in to out" to make it work.

Fixed mine thanks! Doing what Virgil said and going to the timeline and clicking the little wrench icon you have a bunch of selections. Turn off Audio Waveforms:

Timeline → Wrench → Turn Off Audio Waveforms

The audio render workaround is helping but I'd really like to be able to move clips AND see my waveform. Adobe, any ideas?

Having the same issue in the latest version. Clicking across to another panel and then back to my timeline fixes it for about a minute and then the same issue comes back. I wish Adobe would spend more time fixing bugs that have been in their software for two years rather than implementing ai features that have no professional use.

I'm having the same problem. This happened when I created a nest and rendering the audio like mentioned below solved it.

Experiencing the same thing, and as mentioned below the "Timeline → Wrench → Turn Off Audio Waveforms" said by Tyler will do so that you can drag and still see the clip size, but the problem is that I work a lot with the audio too, so I have to be able to see the waveform.

Also I work with nests.

Is it really so, that there is no fix for this?

Continued...

Now I have it narrowed in to it's a "nesting" problem... Kinda makes it crash...
Plus it seems to work fine with other clips in the timeline.

I can confirm this BUG. It's the nesting. It's almost as if it disables all the mouse functions except moving the cursor around. Clicking on another panel or unfocusing the Premiere window(alt-tab for example) unstucks you but as soon as you use scroll on the timeline with a nested subsequence it happens again. When the bug happens you can't even hover over sub-menus to expand it, which it normally does when you just hover over it.

Temp. workarounds but not fixes:
1. "Timeline → Wrench → Turn Off Audio Waveforms"
2. Render audio
