I can't select my clip to resize or really anything on the playback review mini monitor.

New Here ,
Apr 14, 2024 Apr 14, 2024

I used to click on the video directly to make changes in size and position, but for some reason since I changed to a MAC and used the paid version of Premiere, I just cannot use the pointer for that, and its driving me nuts.

Is there any button I should have selected for that to happen instead of me having to select the video in the timeline and then going to effect control to select it again un the movement part?

 

PLEASE HELP.

Double click on the program monitor first in order to activate the wireframe

This bug also happens to me, it only returns to normal when I restart the program.

Having to resize videos using only the numerical parameters in Effect Controls loses a lot of work performance.

Does anyone have any solution? The resizing handles simply do not appear when clicking on the clip.

In Windows, we double-click the program monitor and the move points show. If you are zoomed in more than FIT then you would not see the corner nodes, and depending on where your anchor point is, you may or may not see that after the double-click.

But double-clicking is what we usually do. The issue is that it doesn't appear when I double click, even on Fit.

I can only test on Windows, and everything looks normal to me. There has been some mac only issues around the forums, so, you can look for those, or maybe a mac user can comment here.

Thanks for helping! Really, these are bugs on the Mac. I'm a Mac user and I'm experiencing several bugs that are affecting my workflow.

Did you try a NEW project, maybe drop in a clip that hasn't been in a project yet, and give that a try.

It's no use, I just opened another already finished project and the bug still exists. It only resolves when I restart Premiere.

How about the standard steps, reset your prefrences to default and clear the cache.

You hold down shift (or ctrl/cmd) when starting PP and chose from the options.

@MyerPj,

 

This is an old thread, but it is working as I expect. There were changes around the direct manipulation toggle, etc.

 

I am Win 11, testing in PR release 25.5.0.

 

If nothing is selected in the timeline, double-clicking the Program Monitor shows the movement handles of the top layer. If another track asset is selected, the handles affect that layer. 

 

And you can double-click and then select an asset and the handles apply to that asset.

 

Are those of you experiencing issues on Mac?

 

Stan
