Learn how to brighten or darken the Adobe Premiere Pro interface.

You can lower the brightness when working in a darkened editing suite or making color corrections. Changing the brightness affects panels, windows, and dialog boxes but does not affect scroll bars, title bars, and menus that aren't inside panels. Additionally, the change doesn't affect the application background on Windows.

  1. Select Edit > Preferences > Appearance (Windows) or Premiere Pro > Preferences > Appearance (macOS).
  2. Drag the Brightness slider to adjust the brightness per your preference.
  3. Select OK.
Tip:

Select the Default button to restore the default brightness level.

Result

You can view the Premiere Pro interface with the adjusted brightness.
