Want undo/redo to save and restore playhead position

Community Beginner ,
Jul 30, 2025 Jul 30, 2025

An important feature for all editing programs regardless of what they're editing (text, video, graphics) is for undo/redo to make it clear what is being undone/redone. Text editors do this by moving the cursor to where insert/delete is happening. NLEs like Avid, FCP7, and FCPX do it by moving the playhead to where the action happened - and bringing the playhead into view if the move hides it. As far as I can tell, Premiere has no way of showing you what's being undone/redone unless you already know where to look. Please enlighten me if I'm wrong. If I'm not I hope you add this oh so important feature!

I agree this would be useful and intuitive.

The workaround is to open the History panel from the Window menu.

When you click back and forth through your actions you can see them changing on the timeline - assuming you have zoomed out. The zoom level/view and playhead position are independent of the timeline actions.
