SUMMARY

We realized that when it is the first time that we run Kdenlive (or after an upgrade), the "Add title clip" and "Create animation" are greyed out. Restarting the app solves this.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. `rm ~/.config/kdenlive*`
2. `kdenlive`
3. Go to the menu to add a title clip

OBSERVED RESULT

Impossible to add a title clip or an animation (greyed out), works after a restart.

EXPECTED RESULT

I expect to be able to add a title clip without restarting kdenlive.
