Description Unknown 2016-02-26 22:14:43 UTC 
In Blender, it's nice enough to highlight the entire number field when editing a parameter variable. I thought it'd be a nice little feature to have single-clicking, say, the scale number in the Pan and Zoom effect, highlight the entire number, instead of put the cursor under where they clicked.

Just a minor suggestion; seems to improve the workflow a little more when it's just click & go. And for new users, less clicks and keystrokes to get a job done will feel that much more friendly, I believe.

Reproducible: Always




Suggested while using KDenlive 15.13.0 git master build on Antergos Linux x64, KDE Plasma 5.5.4

I guess this could apply to all of kdenlive maybe.

Farid, I agree with you: I think Kdenlive as a whole could benefit from this.
