Adobe Premier - Ridiculously User Unfriendly

[chrisg79719331]

Anyone else new to Premier finding it just ridiculously over complicated and user unfriendly?

There is a long learning curve, especially if you haven't used professional video editing software previous to trying premiere Pro.

Do you mean after getting the proper training generally needed to use professional level software, or before?

Also find it atrociious that if you accidently hit a button by mistake, you spend the next 10 minutes trying to figure out what happened.  The most User Unfriendly software I have used.  Not to mention you have to go into several menus just to get basic stuff done that should be a simple two click procedure.  Transitions, remove green screen, just to name 2 at the top of my head,  should be a click to open a submenu and easy drag. Exactly like a WSIWIG type of thing like most editors have.  But hey, you at least they give you tutorials.  Lord help you if you click on a tutorial inside Premiere, now you are trying to find the area to get back to your workspace.  /rant off.  Pretty soon, my subscription for the year will run out.  Will uninstall as soon as that day hits and back to other editors.
