Bug 471094

SUMMARY
One thing that often gets in the way of a smooth workflow in Kdenlive is the fact that whenever you make a click to select a panel to make it the active/current one, something always happens right away. This often results in a distraction (caused by the fact that you have to revert the change made, or stop the action being executed without intention and the resume what you went to do initially), so I think it should be avoided whenever technically possible.


OBSERVED RESULT
Depending on where you make click you get:
- Project Bin: the Clip Monitor goes to front, even when you haven't selected any clip in there.
- Monitors: start reproducing the shown video.
- Timeline empty space [Selection Tool active]: change the time cursor position to where you made the click, clicking on an empty space in any track or even where there's no track at all.
- Timeline Clip/Wipes/Track: Effects Stack panel goes to front. (OK, I know this can be switched on/off in Preferences, and it's not a bad thing per se, but just something to take into account when organizing panels in the UI, so not to end up having a messy workflow.


EXPECTED RESULT
Be able to make click on a panel to making it current, without any action starting to happen immediately.

Perhaps there's a way to do it and I don't know it yet, if that's the case my apologies.
Thanks for listening!
