    FR: Markers visible when track 'twirled' down in PP CC

    PierreLouisBeranek Community Member

      When tracks are reduced to their shortest height in CC (equivalent of a track being twirled down in pre-CC versions of Premiere), clip markers disappear.  I can't think of any reason that this would be helpful.  Why can't clip markers just remain visible no matter what the heigh of a track is?

       

      Does anyone know of any logical reason it's this way?  I'll be sending Adobe an official FR to get this fixed.

          Agreed- this is ridiculous.  Very frustrating.  I'll submit FR, too.

            ...not only that, but the minimum track height should be about HALF of what is now.  It feels very amateurish with these giant tracks, and quickly becomes a huge waste of screen real estate when working with 5, 10, 15 audio/video tracks.

             

            The frustration just increases to realize that clip markers don't show up until I make the tracks even bigger.  Ugh.. all these little details...  I'm trying to get used to Premiere, but God I miss FCP...

              Here's my official FR for this to get fixed.  Please sent it to Adobe as well.  The more we speak up about all the stupid things they program into our NLE, the more pressure we'll create to get them to program them out!

              Brief title for your desired feature: Non disappearing clip markers

               

              How would you like the feature to work?

              Clip markers should always remain visible, regardless of track height.

               

              Why is this feature important to you?

              The fact that clip markers disappear whenever a track's height is reduced past as certain point is counter-intuitive, confusing, frustrating and just plain stupid.  There is absolutely no good reason for clip markers to disappear based on track height... ever!  Please fix this horrible UI issue!  Thanks

              Regarding track height going even smaller, it could be done, the way tracks in AE are even shorter, but that would require a redesign of the track heading icons.  Could be handy.  Make sure to submit your Feature Request to Adobe: www.adobe.com/go/wish
