Can't find mask symbols

[#1]

Hello. I'm new to Premiere Pro and watched a video about masking. The marked symbols were necessary for doing it but I can't even find them. All videos I've seen just automatically have them but my opacity tab just looks like this

This is proabably a stupid question but I'm new so any help is appreciated

Which version of Premiere do you have? Look under Help- About Premiere Pro

[#4]

Gathering from the screenshot you are using CS6?

Maskes were not added until later builds.

I appaerently have CS6. Is an update available for free because I haven't seen an option to update it?

[#6 · Accepted solution]

Nope no update.

You will have to take a subscription for CC if you want to use this particular feature.

Garbage matte will act as a mask as well.

Ok, thanks for helping

Hello.

I have the same problem with mask and symbols. I use Premiere Pro CC 7.2.0. Any ideas ?

Thanks

No mask feature in 7.2.0.

Might want to get yourself a subscription.

I assume there is a free trial still available for premiere creative cloud.  it's quite possible if your running such old versions of premiere, that your computer, etc. will not support the latest versions, so I'd suggest you get the free trial and make sure it will work for you.
