Premier Pro CC Feature Request: Automatic Window Selection

I wanted to see if anyone else would like this feature. It's not due to a major issue, just a minor but constant annoyance.
So when I started working with 60fps footage, I realized that automatic dissolve transitions (by pressing Ctrl+D) were set at 30 frames, rather than at 1 second. This made my fades faster than I wanted, so I created custom opacity animation presets titled "Fade In" and "Fade Out" that each last for 60 frames. So what I do is drag the preset over onto the clip I want to use it on, and then, purely out of habit, I immediately hit the space bar to resume playing the timeline. But the effects panel is still selected, and my preset is selected, so instead of playing the timeline, it renames my preset to " ". My request is to have an option where when an effect (or perhaps anything else) is dragged onto a timeline, the timeline panel is then automatically selected, so I don't have to keep retyping the title of my preset.
Thanks!

Sure enough... Okay I figured out what is happening. And it has to be with a custom preset (because you can't rename regular ones).
If the effects panel is highlighted, and the custom preset is highlighted, if my mouse cursor is over the text of the preset (rather than the icon) when I click and drag it over, as soon as I click down it selects the text in the preset title for renaming. So I believe it is set to where if you click twice on a custom preset it will open the text for renaming. The problem is, it doesn't matter how far apart those two clicks are, even if you click and drag.

Feature Request: Maximize Window

Feature Request: Maximize Window
I understand that the little green button up at the top of my windows isn't intended to replace the maximize button I love so much from Windows, it is rather a "Zoom" that is supposed to fit the window to the content within. Unfortunately I find this functionality less than satisfying if not totally useless. I feel that the lack of the ability to concentrate completely on one application at a time (Maximized with no visual noise on the edges to distract me) while retaining the ability to quickly switch windows (hide others just won't cut it) would be the near perfect work-flow.
I use primarily design applications that benefit from as much screen real estate as possible being dedicated to the application, where clicking off, and away from the app isn't just an inconvenience, but it destroys the seamless experience that the design process benefits from.
Using multiple applications - Maximized so as to concentrate on what I am doing - then using Exposé to quickly switch between them would be ideal. This is truely the one thing that is keeping me from switching all of my computers at home and at work to Macs.

..."Using multiple applications - Maximized so as to concentrate on what I am doing - then using Exposé to quickly switch between them would be ideal. "...
If you are primarily concerned with applications and not windows, why don't you just use "Spaces"? It's available now, and allows you to assign an application to a particular space.
These days, the behaviour of the "zoom" button appears entirely up to the developer so suggestions might be better directed toward the ones who make the "design applications" you primarily use.
But back in good old days when Macs actually were designed to be easy to use (and not just pretty to look at), there seemed to have been a convention - not strictly adhered to in all quarters but a convention nonetheless - to use the "zoom" button to fit content, but "Option" + "zoom" to "maximize". If Apple would only go back to that idea, I suspect most people would find that satisfactory...

Premier Pro 2.0 wont startin Windows 7

Unfortunately, I've just upgraded my OS from Vista to Windows 7 and now Premier Pro 2.0 won't run.
When I envoke the program the initialization screen appears, remains visable for about 1 sec then vanishes. I've tried changing the compatabiolity mode to every possible choice and evcen uninstalled and reinstalled the program to no avail.
Any help would be much appreciated.

It's under the thread...
"Premiere Pro 2.0 Compatible with Windows 7?"
It's by Dejan Petkovski and it's the 4th post.
Now I've got an installation problem!!!
I recently upgraded [regretfully] to Windows 7 64-bit.
After I installed PrPro 2.0, the source window showed
ghost figures overlayed with a solid mass of green pixels.
After reading all the forums, I decided to give up and
install PrPro in XP-mode, which I was trying to avoid.
Now I can't Capture. I've been using my PrPro for many
hundreds of hours since 2006 using the same Canopus
video capture card under Windows XP. My computer has
high-end features and is not lacking in capacity.
I'm using DV capture and Serial Device Control for a
DVD player in order to test Capture. I don't know if
I should check the box for "Use VTRs internal Cue".
I tried it an it didn't resolve the problem.
(I do not use Device Control because I have S-Video
and RCA audio going into my capture card.)

Operating system. We have Premier Pro CS6 and 32-bit Windows 7. It will not install

Dell Laptop Latitude 6420
Windows 7 Professional
8GB Ram
A user in Public Relations needs to use Adobe Premier Pro CS6. However when we tried to install it the program is grayed out and has a caution icon. If I hover over it there is a message that says it prefers 64-bit. Prefers does not mean will not work in my opinion. However it will not install.
I read that Premier Pro is 64-bit only on another web site. Is this true? There has to be a solution.
On the Adobe site I saw that installing CS4 Premier was the work around but you have to purchase a license key. We have already purchased Premier Pro and do not have money in the budget to purchase an older product when this one should work.
Please help. I am under a lot of pressure to resolve this
James

Premiere Pro CS6 is 64 bit software and will only install on a 64 bit computer. There is no way around that.

Premiere Pro CC Feature Request: Shortcut for 'Close Other Timeline Panels'

I'm about to post a feature request, but wanted to see if anyone else is interested in this request too. Adobe told me that getting support on the forum first is a good way to push the request through.
Here's the very simple FR:
*******Enhancement / FMR*********
Brief title for your desired feature:
Keyboard Shortcut for 'Close Other Timeline Panels'
How would you like the feature to work?
It was a great touch to add this contextual menu item to Premiere Pro CC, but it's a little clunky without being able to assign a keyboard shortcut to it.
It's usage would simply close every other Timeline Panel except the active one upon pressing the shortcut.
The default could be something not currently in use like Ctrl+Cmd+W (since CMD+W closes the active panel), but customisable in the Keyboard Shortcuts panel.
Why is this feature important to you?
This is something I have to do very frequently while editing, and since I (and many others) edit largely with the keyboard, a shortcut would be very useful and speed up workflow just a tiny bit.
Anyone else interested in this (admittedly fairly boring) feature request, let me know!
Thanks!

Thanks for the support and video Kevin!
cscooper2013: I totally agree with you, I can't see any reason why any action should be exluded from having a shortcut. I've submitted this simple request because I feel like it's more likely to get done on it's own.
Maybe make a separate FR for that?

Feature Request: Corner Window snapping.

Is this the correct forum for feature requests?
I would like to request a feature that would be extremely useful for multitasking. When you drag a window to the corner of your monitor or the upper corner of the task bar the window resizes to half the screen
width and height, and snaps to the corner.
To calculate these points you could do this:
Notes:
TL, TR, BL, BR represent the points of top left, top right, bottom left, and bottom right respectively.
var X-1=Monitor Length (in px)
var Y-1=Monitor Height (in px)
var T=Task bar Height (in px)
var B=Task bar Length (in px)
var x=point of x coordinate (from top left)
var y=point of y coordinate (from top left)
When task bar is on bottom:
TL: x=0, y=0
TR: x=X, y=0
BL: x=0, y=Y-T
BR: x=X, y=Y-T
When task bar is on top:
TL: x=0, y=T
TR: x=X, y=T
BL: x=0, y=Y
BR: x=X, y=Y

Premiere Pro CC Feature Request: add multiple Markers at defined times

I'm about to post a feature request and wanted to check to see if anyone else was interested, as I've read that forum support can help to get feature requests added - and also just in case this feature already exists, and I've missed it in my Googling...!
Here's the request:
Brief title for your desired feature:
Option to add multiple Markers to a timeline at defined times
How would you like the feature to work?
It would be great to have an option in the Markers drop-down menu or to be able to right-click on the Marker icon in the timeline and be able to choose "Add Multiple Markers at xxx minutes/seconds/frames".
Why is this feature important to you?
I often end up creating a lot of montages, and it would be great to be able to use this feature to drop a Marker (for example) every three seconds in my timeline so that I can then add a bundle of clips using Automate to Sequence. At the moment, I do this by clicking on the Playhead Position hot text and typing in 00:03, 00:06, 00:09, etc, and dropping a Marker at each point, and this feature would speed things up a bit. I've also been asked by students if this feature is available as well.
If anyone else would be interested in this request, please let me know...!
Thanks

Yes, that's true, when using my method described above, Prem adds each clip from the first frame and cuts it off when it reaches the next Marker, then I use the Slip tool to get them to the bit I like. I'd just like to remove the step of typing the time into the Playhead Position counter by dropping Markers at set intervals or by choosing to use the first xx seconds in the Automate to Sequence dialogue. Either way, the request is in now, but it doesn't look like it'll gain a lot of traction...!
Cheers for the responses, Jim.

Hello all How do I download updated version of Premier Pro? I am using Windows 8.

Hello all I just finished editing my first mini documentary on Premier Pro. I took it to a friend who helped me polish it up using his Premier Pro software.
When I got home to edit on my laptop. My file could not be read or opened because I needed to update the latest version. Could someone guide me through this prcoess step by step.
I'm not sure where to start and where to find the latest update for my Windows 8 computer.
Thanks everyone.
Nicole

You should find out which specific version of Premiere Pro you need to use. The most up to date version is a subscription-based application, but you might not need that version.

Feature Request: Browse a selected channels entire listing on the guide.

I believe this feature actually existed when I first signed up with FiOS a few years ago. But, from what I recall the feature was removed when a new IMG was implemented.
Anyhow, browsing a channel's entire listing on the guide allows setting up recordings for upcoming programs very easy. This type of browsing can be done at FiOS central on the PC, but it should be intergrated in the guide as it once was.
Currently, the only way I know of, that this can be accomplished in the guide, is by doing a search. For example, do a search for "History", then select the History Channel, and you'll see it's listings by days categorized by folders. This is extremely counter-productive and one big pain, especially since you have to do a search and constantly go in and out of folders to see what's on and read descriptions.
It would be great if I can select a feature such as "browse channel's entire line-up", then see a complete listing of the channels line-up with an easy view of the description for the show, like the way all the channels are listed for browsing.

Sorry, about the inconvenience. I do know you can go to the Guide and select the channel, browse the channel times with right arrow. Once you find lets say History channel, show for 6pm, press the REC key on the remote. It will bring up a list of options. One of those is Record another is set reminder. Hope that helps.

Feature Request - Illustrator - Multi-select and rearrange a set of art boards at once.

I've been hoping for align and multiple select ability for art boards for several years. The issue is that when you're using a large number of art boards arranged in a grid for a large app design project or similar, rearranging art boards is a huge time waster. Repositioning is difficult as there is no way to multi-select or drag several at a time. Art boards also get mis-aligned easily, so being able to use existing align tools for art boards themselves would be an expected, easy to grasp, evolution. (and much faster than doing them one at a time) I often have large illustrator files with a spread of assets ready for export. Being able to make these files orderly and easily viewed by others is crucial.
Also, numbering...
Usually what happens is that we'll drag-duplicate a screen to alter, but they end up with an art board numbers that are out of sequence in the design, making the export out of order as well. It would be awesome to directly click to alter an art board's assigned number.

I have a related FR, so I decided to integrate it with the above, which I also like. The FR is for: Smarter Finds with and/or logic and Smarter Smart collections with And/Or logic. For example, I want to find (or to make a smart collection of) all the photos that are in a folder which meet these criteria:
Their file name contains the word "Cuba" AND they have modifications (in the develop module)
OR
Their file name contains the word "Cuba" AND the file extension is .psd
This is because most photos in this folder are NEF, some of those have been developed in LR, and some have been exported to Photoshop to be worked on. It's frustrating not being able to make this preselection to find ALL the photos I've worked on. Anyone agree we need and/or/not/but logic and to be able to combine criteria in a find request?

Feature Request - Structure Window

I don't know if this request has been made before, but I couldn't find it, so here it is...
It would be nice to have some kind of structure view when editing PL/SQL source files, just like in the Enterprise Manager. This would make it a lot easier to navigate through large source files.
If more people would like this feature, they are welcome to respond here.
Greetz,
Patrick.

Hi Patrick,
This feature has been implemented in the 10g (9.0.5) release. The preview should be available in time for OracleWorld in September.
Thanks,

Feature request: automatic folders for import backup

I normally import my photos from the memory cards into a parent directory with "organize by date". I point the import at the main top level folder, and each day's shots get a sub folder. I also invoke the backup on import to make a backup copy on a second drive. For me the ideal arrangement would be an option for the folder structure on the backup to mirror the structure of the primary drive. This way when I need to retrieve a backup, it is easy to find it. For example, I have more than once selected a large group of photos to apply a keyword, then clicked on single photo in the same group, hit the delete key to delete the photo, and deleted the entire group! With parallel folders recovery from this kind of blunder simply requires re-importing the backup folder. If I import photos from a card with multple days of shooting I cannot even easily create the parallel folders in the backup. Worse, with LR3, if I fail to actively manage the creation of backup folders I run the risk of overwriting backups because of duplicate file names. The LR2 approach, while less flexible, was more robust.
KUDOS to the LR team. The new 2010 process pipeline is amazing!

In the mean time:
Consider using Jeffrey Friedl's Tree Publisher and publish the original versions of your photos to a tree.

Feature Request: Function To Select A Photo

e.g.
- catalog:selectPhoto( photo ),
and to go with that:
- catalog:getPhotosInFolder( folder ) - leaving folder blank returns array of photos in the currently selected folder(s).
Rob

Yes - This would be a very usefull function.

Feature request - disabled auto-select in function editor

PLEASE add a setting to disable this. It is very annoying.

Hi Ben,
There are a few enhancements that could be made to improve the productivity of heavy script builders:
1) Reinstate the "Advanced Editor" button on the right side of the formula bar. It's tiring having to click the View tab, click the editor button, and then flip back to the view tab to apply and close (or use the pull-down menu on the left). Leave the View
tab as is - just put the button back as a shortcut to open the editor dialog box. Thanks!
2) When you create a custom function, the function tab appears...which means that PQ knows that it's working with a function. It would be useful if, in addition to creating the function tab, PQ unchecks the load to workbook check box. Loading a
custom function to the workbook serves no practical purpose. The problem is that I invariably forget to uncheck the box after creating a new custom function, and have to re-enter the function, uncheck the box, then delete the now useless worksheet. Phew!
3) Would be really nice if there was a window that allowed the input of test function arguments, and displayed the results of intermediate expressions calculated eagerly. Such functionality would be a huge boost for troubleshooting complex custom functions.

Title templates in Premier Pro CC?

There don't seem to be any title templates in my new Premier Pro CC
I have also installed CS6 PP as I want the Encore program - the templates are loaded in that version.

Firstly, thanks for staying with me Jeff!
Ok
1.       Next tried selecting ‘C:\Users\Geoff\Desktop\Adobe CS6\Premiere Pro Family Content Installers’ as the destination and clicked ‘Next.
2.       Click ‘Finish’
3.       Folder opens called Adobe CS6 – Premier Pro Family Content Installers
4.       Click ‘Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 Functional Content’ option
5.       Click ‘Set-up’ in the next folder
6.       ‘Adobe Installer’ runs – Licence Agreement window opens – click ‘Accept’
7.       Window called ‘Options’ appears.
8.       There is one ‘option’ (you can’t have just ONE option!!) – ‘Adobe Premier Pro CS6 Function Cont…’
9.       Select above ‘option’ and click ‘Install’
10.   Accept ‘changes to computer’ warning.
11.   Window called ‘Installation Complete’ with three hyperlinks – the membership page/My Adobe page/Video Tutorials and a ‘Close’ button.
12.   Click ‘Close’
13.   Nothing happens – titles still not present in my Premier Pro CC
I am paying a lot of money each month to buy this incomplete product, I do not believe that I should have to go through this, to me complicated, routine. I believe that the program should be delivered complete to my desktop – it is not.
In order to obtain ‘Adobe Encore’, as I still make DVDs for people, I had to load (free of charge I admit) the CS6 suite of programs, Premier Pro CS6 was included in this suite – complete with the ‘Title Templates’ fully loaded.
