How to have PR remember open timelines

[peterkellner1]

I build courseware, and I'll often put in my timeline all my clips in order into my timeline viewer.  That is, I'll see open, clip1,clip2,clip3,...

I would love it if there was someway to have the clips I have open, stay open after I close and re-open the PR project.  Is there any way to get PR to remember the open clips in the viewer?

Are you asking about open sequences in the Timeline panel or about open clips in the Source Monitor?

It should do that.

Try resetting the preferences:

If that doesn't work, try resetting the Workspaces:
Reset a workspace
Reset the current workspace to return to its original, saved layout of panels.
1. Do one of the following:
• Click the Workspace menu icon and select Reset to Saved Layout.
• Choose Window > Workspace > Reset to Saved Layout.

If that doesn't work, try creating a new project and import the old one into it.

I realize my issue might be that it's the order of the sequences is the issue. Any way to keep the order? (or even get the order to re-order alphabetically).

I always have clips like the attached and it's a pain to not have the in order.

You can't do exactly what you want, but you can get close:
