Horizontal scrolling in sequence/timeline while using stacked panels.

[sebastiaen]

Hello everyone,

Today I discovered that I can stack panels in Premiere Pro. I'm working on a big project and have many sequences that I have stacked, so this is potentially very helpful.

Have a look at this screenshot to understand what I mean by stacked timelines/sequences; I'm not sure I'm using the right words.

But here's the problem: When the panels are stacked, I seem to lose the ability to scroll sideways in my timelines/sequences.

Is this a bug, a feature or what am I doing wrong?

• I can still scroll vertically (and zoom in/out by pinching the trackpad).)
• I'm using a Macbook and its integrated trackpad and am running OSX Sierra.

Thanks for reading, hope you can help me

Greetings,

Stacking sequences is called Pancake editing.

I tried it on my Imac with a trackpad and cannot reproduce your issue by moving two fingers left/right.

Thanks for your reply Ann Bens! Any suggestion on how I can make it work on my laptop?

Your screen looks very small.

What if you just did two panels?

Making new panels and placing them underneath worked, thanks for the tip!

Workflow-wise it's not as smooth as just stacking, but it works nonetheless.

Still curious about why I can't scroll sideways when stacked, but if it's a bug that's only affecting me I'm just gonna let it be for now.

Sorry for reviving an older post, but I've been dealing with this for the last few days and it's driving me nuts!

I don't Pancake edit too often, but I did on my latest video and that seems to be the trigger for losing horizontal scrolling. I was finished compiling and was down to one timeline so I ended up closing the timeline and opening it back up and HALLELUJAH horizontal scrolling is back!

Hopefully you've figured this out by now - or at least moved onto other projects. This was seriously pushing me over the edge.
