Reveal in Explorer Custom Shortcut Unresponsive

Hi Premiere Pro Team,

 

I have my keyboard shortcuts set to Alt+R to reveal a clip from the Timeline Panel to the Project Panel. I use the same Alt+R shortcut to reveal from the Project Panel in Explorer. However, this custom shortcut no longer works to reveal in Windows Explorer. It actually has not worked for a while now in various builds for the past year. I just never got around to reporting this bug. Here is a screenshot to illustrate the problem:

 

 

The keyboard shortcut revealing from the Timeline Panel to the Project Panel does work, just not from the Project Panel to Explorer.

 

I can still right+click on the clip from the Project Panel and select the option, which works. But that is extra clicking and takes me too long to find the option every time.

I too am experiencing the same issue.

Are you using Alt+R (or any letter) as well?

@Averdahl,

 

> Avoid Alt+ on a windows machine. 

 

Very familiar with how that is a problem. I'm now on Win 11 and did not think anything like that changed. But in testing Brandon's issue, I see that Alt no longer lights up the menu options at the top. But the Windows menu Alt options work as expected. Alt+F opens the File submenu. There is no "R" menu option, so Alt+R works in PR.

 

@Brandon Loshe, Alt+R works using the Application-wide option. If only the Project Panel shortcut is created (or both are created), the Project Panel does not work. I can't explain that, but there are a variety of examples of changes occurring in shortcuts that broke some things, or require recreating your shortcuts file.

 

I did not have these set before, and adding just the application "Reveal in Explorer" works as I think you want.

@Averdahl - Thanks for the idea, but that did not work, either. 

 

It's exactly like @Stan Jones said. Right+clicking and slecting the option from the menu works, but that takes so much extra time when it's a command that I frequetly use.
