Yesterday i could work on my project and put a FX video GRID on my video . Today the option GRID is gone off the Video FX list to chose from . Where is it gone and how can i get it back ?

Correct answer PaulMurphy

The Grid effect, along with several other legacy effects, has been removed from the latest version of Premiere Pro (24.6) as part of ongoing updates.

You can find more details and alternatives in this help article that explains which effects were removed and what you can use instead.

Here's a 2 minute tutorial on creating and saving custom guides, real easy and useful.

Looking at that, I don't see why keeping the old effect was really needed. I'd forgotten that Guides can even be shared.

Because its really good for creating old school tv lines effect, not just as literal guides. Is there no other subsitute for doing this now, other than doing it in a different program?

If you describe how you were using the effect, we can suggest an alternative.

Aligning text to make sure it's centered on screen.

Also, it looks like you're an Adobe Community Professional. Do you being paid to reply to negative comments?


No, I'm not an ACP,  though I was for several years.

 

And for your information, all ACPs are volunteers ... simply other users that are willing to spend some time helping others. Who at times get snarky if they don't like the help offered.

 

I'm a practical guy. Yea, it's a pain that some of the obsolete effects are gone. But as a long-time business owner myself, who's made my living my entire adult life in our own business, I understand priority choices. And especially, that quite often, you must make a priority decision that you do not like whatsofreaking ever ... but it must be done for the best case for the business.

 

The oboslete effects were all ones used by very few users. Period. Yea, I'm one of those "very few users" ... so I am totally aware of losing something I preferred to use. I "lost" several effects there.

 

But as a practical person, I offered a process to replace the effect using the information others also provided. Being as I'm trying to help you and others.

 

So why are you b*hing at me, for trying to help you simply get work done?

 

Being ticked at "Adobe" I can understand, naturally. I've posted truly epic rants here myself at times. But jumping on someone volunteering time to try to help you, that I don't get.

Ancient code, with very little use by the vast majority of users. That's the issue with most of the effects put in the Obsolete bin.

 

Which was created in about 2018. So we've had long notice that at some point those were disappearing.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
