Since the update to 2025 and the addition of the crop function within Effects/Properties panels - you cannot see an outline of where you crop mark is. It's just a drag and guess until you see the part of the frame dissapear. Obviously the lines will appear when using the crop transform effect from the effects panel - but confused why we don't see the lines within the other built-in panels as well. If Adobe is trying to make it easier for us to use it there without needing an additional effect then it should be fully functional.

Ah, well there we go, haha. Didn't know there was even a toggle for that.

 

But - it appears this does not apply to cropping titles/graphics - only transform is an option under Direct Manipulation, no crop, even though it can be cropped in the Effects/Motion panel.

Not missing, just have to turn on Direct Manipulation in the Program window. 

That will give you a wireframe.

Hi @JOSHBEE.BE 
In which version of Premiere was the crop function acting the way you would normally be used to? And was it 25.2.3 or 25.1 that you noticed the outline difference?

If you can provide any screen shots or video captures of what you are experiencing that should help too.
