Description Unknown 2019-04-22 20:27:24 UTC 
SUMMARY
When I try to left-click + drag the mouse to re-size the default layout of the Kdenlive 19.04 appimage, it instantly snaps back and reverts to its default layout.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the Kdenlive appimage either from a file browser or from a Terminal/Konsole.
2. Left-click + hold the five dots in between the monitors and the timeline
3. move the mouse up and down to adjust the size of the widgets above the timeline

OBSERVED RESULT
Instantly after lifting off the left-click, the layout snaps back to the default.

EXPECTED RESULT
For the layout to remain in the adjusted state.

This also happens on KDE Neon using the latest version of Plasma (5.15.4).

Delete the "kdenliverc" file. See here: https://community.kde.org/Kdenlive/Configuration

I tried that as you requested, but that did not fix the issue. Re-sizing it still has the interface snapping back, specifically the height between the timeline on the bottom and the rest of the widgets above it.

Do you have deleted ~/.config/kdenlive-appimagerc as well?
Comment 5 Julius Künzel 2021-02-25 19:10:18 UTC 
Can you please update to the latest version (https://kdenlive.org/en/download/) and report here whether this is still happening?

(It can be a QT issue that has been fixed in the mean while. Also there have been some changes to the layout system with version 20.08)
