Can't rename file in save as dialogue box using keyboards

[Abdus.samad]

I am trying save  a premirer file and in the save dialogue box it show the file name you want to save as and the location, the moment i press any of the "arrow key" on my keyboard to move the text indicator left or right, the dialogue box just close by itself and not allowing me rename. its a bug in premiere need to be fix i guess.

sounds like it's a mac issue rather than an adobe issue to me... bwdik.  Not always a smart idea to update OS and/or Apps in the middle of a project....  Although if I had waited to update OS and/or Apps til all projects were finished, I'd still be working in MacOS 9...  I've had projects come back to life 10 years after finishing...     

One thing I noticed in the original post is that you talk about long file names.  Not sure how it stands in modern OS's, but there used to be a limit to the number of characters in a file path...(if you don't understand what this means, post back and I'll explain in greater detail).   I was working on a complex documentary project that dated back about 20 years, and many inexperienced editors had worked on it.  Had serious problems that were only resolved when I rebuilt the media drive limiting the depth of folders...    Don't think this is your problem, but worth a look see...  and a worthwhile heads up for everyone...  And this has proved true on both macs and windows...   And when I was working on clients' machines, I was often faced with enormous resistance to fixing this issue (up there with "you have too many files on your desktop...").

Hoping for a fix soon - it's slowly killing me...

Issue - I create a sub-clip. Go to add a description in the project panel. After a couple seconds of typing the box will clear itself deleting what I have written and place the cursor back at the start of the box. See video. This happens everytime, without fail unless I can type the full description before it occurs. I have tried resetting preferences/cache and resetting to saved window layout and using only the deafult windows layouts.

Adobe Premiere Pro version number: PR 23

Operating system - Windows 11 Version 22H2

System Info: CPU, GPU, RAM, HD:

CPU - Ryzen 9 5900x

GPU and Driver Version - RTX 3080Ti + GTX 1070 (Studio 526.98)

RAM - 32gb DDR4 3200MHz

Hard Drive - SSD (OS + Adobe) / M.2 (Project/Footage) / 2nd M.2 (Cache) 

Video format: MP4/MOV H.264 10 bit 4:2:2 25fps Rec.709 4K

Workflow details: Not sure what else is relevant here. Creating subclips in the source/project windows is all.

Steps to reproduce - Same as issue description.  

Expected result - Be able to add a description

Actual result -  It deletes my text after a few seconds

Hi Jay,

This sounds like a similar issue to one others have with the Save As function. I'll have to check. Thanks so much for the detailed info.

Thanks,
Kevin

This is not fixed in AE v22.6.0 nor Premiere 22.6.4--how does this happen? This is a basic function in production and of this program. And don't suggest updating to CC2023. Commercial studios are still using CC2022. 

[MotionByAllison · Accepted solution]

This is fixed in the Premiere 23.0 version. 

[rlr29711]

You need to fix this in the 2022 version. Major commercial studios are not working with 2023 yet.

Still broken in Animate 2023. Why is this still a bug?

I've not had this issue, but I am not getting exactly this - it also closes by itself for me if I use the "delete" key - but not the "backspace" key.  Anyone else suffering this?

This arrow key problem is still happening for me within 23.0.0 Build 63. It might be better in newer updates, but it's still here for me in 23. I'm not sure about the delete key problem.

What is the problem?  Is it in for instance a 'Save As' dialog, or something else?
