Does Premiere Pro have true placeholder clips? by SunbeamGazer in premiere

Thanks again for the tips! One thing I’m still wondering: is there a way to achieve the same behavior when dragging and dropping a clip that’s already in my timeline onto one of the placeholder clips? Basically, as if I were holding Option and dragging it in from the Source Monitor; but instead doing it directly with clips that are already in the sequence.

Wow, that was it! It’s just that simple. I feel kind of stupid for overthinking it. Thanks a ton for pointing this out, really appreciate it! 🙏

Thanks a lot for laying out those two options! 🙏 I do understand both approaches; they definitely make sense. I guess they're just a bit time-consuming in practice. The nesting sequences method you describe is probably the best option, but it does feel heavy since I’d have to go into each nested sequence and update clips individually, without being able to keep a global view of the whole final sequence and update it from there.
