Color Workspace No Longer Selecting Clips with Arrow Keys

[Siah_Clark]

This issue has been happening for roughly three months now. I used to be able to navigate through the timeline in the Color Workspace with the arrow keys. The cursor would jump to each clip, selecting them as I went, so I could just keep the mouse among the adjustment sliders. Now, I have to manually click each clip in the timeline in order to select it for editing. Not a big deal, just kind of annoying since I used to not have to do that. 

This might be as stupid simple as a setting that got changed somewhere, but for the life of me I can't find it, nor do my Google searches turn up results for this specific issue. Any help is appreciated! 

Premiere Pro v 24.4.1

Windows Version 10.0.19045 Build 19045

Basic Steps: Attempt to navigate timeline with arrow keys in Color Workspace

Expected Result: Arrow Keys should jump between clips in timeline, selecting the current one for color edits

Actual Result: Arrow Keys move frame-by-frame through the timeline without selecting clips.

Note - my actual result listed in the post is not accurate. The up/down arrow keys DO jump between clips, but they DO NOT select said clips in the timeline. Sorry for the confusion, just a bit of a brain fart there.

Go to the top menu, and select Sequence > Selection Follows Playhead.

In previous versions of Premiere Pro, this feature was automatically enabled when you switched to the Color workspace, but it seems that this is not the case in the latest version.

Enabling it manually should bring back the functionality you're used to.

Cheers,

This worked! Thank you, I figured it was probably something simple I was overlooking.
