Welcome to Software Tip Tuesday for Adobe Premiere Professional on ProVideo Coalition.
Each week, we are going to share a brand new tooltip to avoid wasting time when working in Adobe Premiere Professional.
Have you ever ever wanted to vary a big batch of marker colours? By default, Premiere units marker colours to inexperienced. However you might need a state of affairs the place you wish to change all of these markers to a different colour, similar to if you’re about to obtain feedback from Body.io, however you have already got inexperienced markers within the timeline. When this case occurs, I’ll change all of the marker colours from the default inexperienced to a unique colour earlier than I obtain new feedback for the body. Otherwise you may wish to change a choose group of markers to white whereas altering one other group to pink.
First, open the Markers panel (Window > Markers) and choose all to make sure that all markers are chosen.
All these inexperienced markers that have been imported from Body.io at the moment are chosen.
It’s at all times a good suggestion to verify the timeline as nicely to see that the markers have certainly been chosen.
You’ll be able to inform the markers within the timeline are chosen as they may have a faint dotted line beneath the purpose of the marker.
Subsequent, set the markers to a brand new colour through the use of the Set Marker keyboard shortcut. That keyboard shortcut is unmapped by default, so you must map it to vary the colour from something apart from inexperienced.
This tip will solely work when this unmapped keyboard shortcut is ready.
You don’t must set each singe one of many Set Marker colours to a keyboard shortcut as you’ll most certainly solely use just a few of them often.
That mentioned, I’ve mapped all of them to an OPT+quantity modifier key.
When executing the Set Marker command, all chosen markers can be modified to the brand new colour you set the marker to.
You don’t have to vary all the marker colours as as soon as as you don’t have to pick all of the markers within the Marker panel to make this work. You’ll be able to shift+choose a spread or markers as nicely to solely choose a gaggle of markers. This may be useful if you wish to change solely particular markers to a unique colour.
This methodology of selectively altering a gaggle of markers colours vs altering them all of sudden can turn out to be useful to trace adjustments as you’re employed. Within the above picture you possibly can see a whole bunch of default inexperienced markers importing from Body.io. The orange markers current within the timeline have been vital markers that famous every part change of this job. By altering them to orange (from the default inexperienced) I used to be capable of maintain them intact when importing the 511 notes from Body.io. As I went by way of the adjustments I might change a gaggle at a time to point which batch of notes I had labored on.
Above is similar timeline once I was executed. There’s a satisfaction to seeing notes and adjustments marked from the default inexperienced to a different colour to point they’re executed!
