Cursor sticking in Premiere

Participant ,
Aug 19, 2019 Aug 19, 2019

Hi,

I use a Wacom Intuos Pro and Premiere v13.1 on a Mac and I have the following problem since about a year (so with all the previous Premiere versions as well).

When I navigate with my pen the cursor very often "gets stuck" - when I click on something and move away it keeps thinking that I am pressing down. It happens during anything - navigating between different timelines, doing colour correction etc. It is really annoying so sometimes I have to switch to the mouse which does not have this problem. I have this tablet for two years and the clicking works perfectly fine with all the other software including other Adobe Products like Lightroom and Photoshop, but Premiere is almost impossible to use.

How can I fix it?

Thank you!

Hey Matt,

Is it the same problem on the Beta? Let me know. If so, PM me to remind me to contact Premiere Pro's hardware representative who checks this stuff out for the team. Hope to connect you.

 

Cheers,
Kevin

I started experiencing this ever since I switch from Windows to Mac. So annoying. I's clearly been going on for years, so it's confusing as to why it hasn't been fixed.

After updating to the latest version I've yet to see any of the stickiness.  Not going to hold my breath. wink, wink

I have had this problem with a Logitech mouse on Premiere on a Mac Studio running Sonoma.  Current Adoe Premeire build is 25.3 but it's been happening for about 2 years now.  It's been bad enough lately for me to start looking into it.

  I will select a sequence, and the software becomes unaware when I release the mouse.  So it then drags the timeline window - undocking that sequence as if I had intended to drag the timeline window instead of just select it.  Happens very frequently
