Program monitor objects cannot be moved with cursor after I sleep/wake Computer

[Mountain Panther]

So, I've been having this issue ever since I started using Premiere Pro back in 2020, but I just crossed my mind now. 

I'm working on a Premiere Pro project on my MacBook. I add pictures, shapes, sounds into the timeline and it shows on the Program Monitor (the visual area that mimics what's on the timeline. There are time instead of having to move or scale items on the Effects Control, I use my cursor to click, move, and shrink items on the program monitor. Then, I take a break and close the lid or put my MacBook to sleep. I come back in about 10 minutes, log back into my MacBook and now I cannot use my cursor to select anything on the program monitor; I have to use the Effects Control to move, scale, rotate, etc. 

I did notice if I select an item on the Program Monitor before putting my computer to sleep, then wake it up again, this keeps the Premiere Pro to allow me to keep moving items. If not, I have to close Premiere Pro and open it again in order for me to move, scale, and rotate items on the Program Monitor without using the Effects Control. I know this is very nit-picky but I wanted to know if anyone else has experience this, Mac and Windows users. I wonder if it's a bug with the Premiere Pro.

Any help would great.

I'm not seeing that issue.

Win11 23H2, each version since 2020.

Thank you. I use both Windows and Mac but was too sure if it was only me.

I'm not able to duplicate it. I just tried again twice, and if I double-click a text layer in the program monitor, it selects and I can move it around, rotate, etc.

Try creating a new project and import the old one into it.

It will continue doing this regardless of creating a new project or importing it.

Hi Mountain Panther,

We're sorry to hear about this. Could you please confirm whether you are using an external monitor for the preview with your MacBook or the built-in display?

Thanks,

Sumeet

Hello, this issue occurs with the MacBook's display alone and the monitor connected. This has also been an issue I've encountered since 2020 but I wanted to bring light to it.
