I synced and grouped multicam footage to then do my cuts and choose angles by disabling unneeded clips in the timeline.

The problem is - every time I try to do this, all clips in the group react. The clips that were disabled, become enabled, and the clips that were enabled become disabled.

I select an individual clip in the group by holding Ctrl and using Left Mouse Button. My selected clip highligths, but the rest of the group remains unselected.

however when I use a hotkey or the context menu to Disable  the selected clip, all clips react as if I selected them all, which I haven't.

To get this to work properly I have to ungroup my clips, but then I risk breaking the sync and messing up badly.

I tried installing a newer version of Kdenlive from the PPAs to test this, but I couldn't.

I can confirm this issue. It would be great if we could disable each clip separately in a group.

This can now be achieved by selecting a single item in a group (with Alt+Click)
