Reorder / Rearrange Video and Audio Tracks
It would be amazing to simply grab a track and move it up or down in the order of the sequence. This was something I could do easily back when I used Vegas Pro. Occasionally, I have big, complex sequences and would like to reorder the tracks for organization purposes or for shipping off to audio master. Thanks!

Really?
Premiere guys, just walk to the next room and borrow this feature from After Effects! Such a pain... -

Frustrating only begins to describe the effect of the lack of this feature. The break between Video and Audio tracks also needs to be optional. In general, visualization and layout are very personal to the workflow of not only every editor but every project. Lack of customization in the timeline seems rigid and this, with what appears to be a lack of a valid reason for this rigid, non—user-responsive approach.

Been yelling about this for over three years now. And over those years have started doing more and more projects in Resolve. As of 2021 I no longer recommend Premiere to my students, because of Adobe's inability to properly document its software or address basic functional features like this.

Like with after effects or about any other Adobe program, I'd also like to be able to drag a track (i.e., Layer), including the clips therein, up or down to a different position to organize or to even temporarily aid in a task. Jennifer is right, folks, are you listening?

Why are we still asking this question in 2021? Adobe, are you listening?

As was stated before - not having this in the software from day 1 is surprising enough, not having implemented it by now is RIDICULOUS.

@daniel - it's not about rearranging clips - it's about rearranging tracks...

In the middle of editing, I just decided I need a color matte behind some .jpg images. Premiere will add a new track above the existing tracks. But if I apply the color matte to the new track, it will overlay everything below. So I need to move the new track below the track with the images. It would be nice to be able to do that by dragging tracks.

Would love to have this option. Screenshot attached is from davinci resolve. Some times at the trunover stages audio, even needes some rearrangement. Yes you can create new track at prefred location and move clips to that. But the process is not easy.

+10000 come on Adobe. This is a super basic feature.
If you want to see a program that does this feature with precision -- VEGAS PRO.

This is exactly one of those reasons I'm so sick of Adobe. Are they even working with their own software!? Every day you find something new frustrating.

This is a feature that is not worth having until the day you realized how it is the perfect solution to your problem. When tracks have names; when audio tracks have a specific set of effects applied. Moving the clips and the recreating the individual track scenarios is a real pain. Re-ordering the tracks would be so easy. So I am all for this.
