    Hello.
    The system I am familiar with is DPS Velocity. The system I am learning about is PPro 2.0. On the Velocity, you could make a marker on the clip that is on the timeline/sequence. This marker would allow me to type info, like change shot here. The marker would stay with the clip no matter where you put it. I can only figure out on the PPro to make a sequence marker that stays put and does not move when the clips move. Is there some way to replicate this on PPro?

    Also, when I make a second version of the timeline/sequence, the markers don’t go along to the second version of the sequence. It makes a blank timeline/sequence and I cut and paste the clips from sequence 1, but the markers don’t want to come along. What am I doing wrong?

    Thank you for any help you can provide.

    I have discovered the CLIP Marker. Yes. But is there a way to type info that can be attached to the clip marker? I will continue to look and maybe someone that knows will put me out of my misery.
    Thank you.

    I too feel your pain on the markers implementation in PPro.
    For clip markers, there currently is not a way to annotate.

    I am however able to make a duplicate sequence and all my markers
    (sequence and clip) are available in the newly created sequence.
    This was by right clicking the sequence in the project window and
    choosing ‘duplicate’. Comments for sequence markers were there too.

    Something that annoys me is that when you do set a clip marker on a
    clip already in the timeline, that marker is not available
    on that same clip opened from the project window nor match
    framed into the source window. If you double click the timeline clip
    to load into the source window, the marker is there. If you
    place the marker on a clip in the source window, it appears
    there and in subsequently-edited-to-the-timeline instances of
    that clip and in all other occurances of the clip OTHER THAN
    instances that were edited to the timeline prior to adding that
    marker. Does that make sense? This doesn’t seem right to me.
    This seems somewhat like PPro not updating clip names if you change
    them in the project window when those clips are already used in
    sequences- also very annoying.

    I would also love to have the ability to print or otherwise gain
    access to a text list for all markers: numbers, notes and their TC
    positions (for sequence and/or clip markers if they could include
    comments)- but that’s not possible right now either.

    Please submit a feature request to Adobe! I have, so maybe together
    we can generate some pull with Adobe! 😉

    Thank you Troy for the help. I looked and looked and could not locate…now I know. Will follow your lead about the suggestion to the folks at Adobe, because it sure is a useful function to have.

    Thanks again.
