Question

Position and Scale Bug in New release

Every time I try to use the slider (don't know the real name) to adjust the position or scale of a clip in the effect controls panel, it immediately jumps to thousands in value for x and 0 for y. I have to manually type in my position values now since I cannot simply drag the mouse anymore. Anyone else having this issue?

Hello @Production3500,

Thanks for the message. It’s been a long time since you filed this bug, and I apologize for the lack of a response. Are you still having this issue? If so, the team will need more information from you to reproduce the bug. Can you provide the information required here? How do I write a bug report?

 

I'll move your post to the Discussions board while we await your information.

 

Thanks,


Kevin

I would not call it a limitation. 256 megapixels, with a maximum dimension of 32,768 pixels in either direction. That is quite a bit.

 

What ever it takes to make it work.

If you have to split in 4, so be it.

 

Some editors make their creditroll in Ps and make the scroll in Premiere.

Hi Ann,

Thanks so much for replying. I'm not an expeerienced editor.  Am I right in reading that because if this limitation - my credit rollor is limited in length if I keep al the text in a single box?  I have the classic two columns - names and credit - and it's long in two boxes. Do I need to split it into 4 for example?

 

Best,

Andy

For those experiencing this issue, I've found that if I switch to a different sequence and then switch back I am able to manipulate the position of the clip as normal. Hope this helps.

Great answer!  It is still a bug, but when I switched from another sequence then back, the "jump" went away.  Thanks.

I'm also having this issue.

This doesn't happen all the time, but occasionally, it does. And it requires me to restart Premiere.

1) Take 1920x1080 multicam clip, and create new sequence with it.

2) Change Sequence settings to 1080x1080 (I edit videos in Square format for Social Media platforms like Facebook.)

3) Open Effect controls. Change the x Position. The position jumps to 32767.0. Dragging or using arrow keys, has no effect. (Keeps jumping between 32767 and 32757.) If I enter a value, such as 500, it jumps to 888.9.

4) Quitting Premiere and reopening project seems to put everything back to normal. (Position is still 32767, but it will let me change it to 540 and it acts normally after a restart.)

5) When editing a dozen different clips, it typically requires several restarts of Premiere.

Hey,

I'm making a credit roller for a film - but I cant seem to move any new single line of text below 32767 - it's drivingb me nuts. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Andy
