Hi looneymouse,

The panel might have got closed accidentally. Click on the Title panel settings button > Choose Properties.

Please let us know it that helps.

Thanks,

I finally remembered how to fix this. The error occurs because, while in the Title Tool, I hit Cmd-W, hoping to close the Title; instead, it closes whatever panel is selected and won't bring that panel back when I open the Title Tool again.

The fix is:

Use the three dashes drop down menu to open the panel you want (ex. Properties).
This is the critical step: Drag the panel and place it where you want it (see below).
Repeat with other panels you want to always be open (Tools, etc.)
These panels should now be there when you open Title Tool again.

I am so sick o those bugs on and on and on. I got so many titles on my project right now, which is legacy and Iam suffering the same problem i takes whole workflow so slooooowwww and could count hours of showing those menus every time i want to change a simple font. ADOBE for that kind of money youre charging its unacceptable to having those issues.

I too am suffering from what everyone else is suffering from, where this works, but it is not a permanent fix... Every time I open a text window, I am having to reveal these panels manually.

By reveal panels, do you mean resizing the assembled panels (Ann's comment in post 27), or the panels not staying part of the legacy title group (a problem that should now be fixed)? What specific dot version of PR are you using?

This workaround is becoming very tedious. Is there a fix yet to make it go back the way it used to be?

Fixed in 2019.0.2. If not working for you in that version, let us know.

Fixed partially: panels now stick but don't keep the same dimensions: re scaling all the time

Yes this is awful! I have a text heavy project and this is killing me! Why are all the tools, actions, and properties not automatically available like it used to be??

How do we fix this ??

Here are the main options:

a) Try the custom workspace I described in post 14. That has worked for me (but apparently not for anyone else).

b) Suffer with the "all panels" option.

c) Roll back and wait for the fix.

Thank you for the timely response and help. This is a very unfortunate error on Adobe's part...

It used to be that every time I clicked on a title to edit it, all 4 of these options came up. Now every time I open a title, I have to show these options (Tools, Styles, Actions, Properties) and then the next time I open a title to edit it, I have to do it all over again. The latest update seems to have caused this glitch as near as I can tell. I have tried clicking on each of these options and then saving the file, I've tried saving the workspace. Nothing works. Every time I go to edit a title, I have no tools.
