If a window contains more tabs than Adobe Premiere Pro can display at once, drag the
slider bar that appears above the tabs.
Using workspaces
Adobe Premiere Pro comes with preset window arrangements that let you reconfigure the
windows for specific tasks such as editing effects or audio. You can create and save
custom
window layouts and apply them to any project. Saving a workspace preserves the location
of the Project, Monitor, Timeline, Effects, Effect Controls, and Audio Mixer windows.
To use a workspace:
Choose Window > Workspace, and choose a workspace.
To save a custom workspace:
1
Arrange and size windows the way you want.
2
Choose Window > Workspace > Save Workspace.
3
Type a name for the workspace, and click Save.
To delete a custom workspace:
Choose Window > Workspace > Delete Workspace, choose a name, and click Delete.
Adjusting user interface brightness
You can adjust the brightness of the background color in Adobe Premiere Pro windows
and palettes. For example, you may prefer to lower the brightness when working in a
darkened editing suite or when performing color corrections.
To adjust the brightness of window and palette backgrounds:
Choose Edit > Preferences > General, and specify a value for User Interface Brightness.
To minimize the visual impact of window elements, right-click the Windows desktop
and choose Properties, and customize options in the Appearance tab in the Display
Properties for Windows. For example, use the Windows Classic style or reduce the font
size
of title bars (see Windows online Help).
Viewing clip information in the Project window
At the top of a Project window is the
thumbnail viewer
, which you can use to preview
individual clips. By default, the first frame of a clip appears in the thumbnail viewer and in
other places in the project where the thumbnail is displayed. You can override the default
thumbnail by designating any clip frame as a
poster frame
.
To view a selected clip’s information:
Do any of the following:
•
Examine the thumbnail viewer in the upper left corner of the Project window. If you
select multiple clips, the thumbnail viewer indicates how many clips are selected.
•
Switch to List view, if necessary, and expand or scroll horizontally to view columns.
Some columns may be hidden; see “Using List view columns” on page 51.
•
Choose File > Get Properties For > Selection.
