After adding a Zone of a clip to the Project Bin as a subclip the description field becomes non editable, both for the parent clip as well as the sub clips. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Add a description for a clip in the bin. 2. Mark a Zone in the clip monitor and add a to project bin (ctrl+i) 3. Try to edit the description. OBSERVED RESULT Not possible to edit or add description. Not for parent nor child clips. No matter if description is previously created or not. EXPECTED RESULT Being able to edit descriptions so we can properly log material.
Which description field do you mean. Can you upload a screenshot? Please try with the current Kdenlive AppImage version 18.12.0e
With right click on the clips and click on Rename you can rename as you wish. Or click on the clip and hit F2.

Created attachment 117322 [details] 18.12.0e without description field
The description field in the bin has now disspaeared! I'll file a separate issue on that. Attached screenshots from both 17.12.3 and 18.12.0e showing this. Back to this issue, the same seems to be true for the name field. A clip without a child zone can be renamed. If a child is added the parent can no longer be renamed while the child can.
The Description column can be shown or hidden from the bin menu. Just check it to make it re-appear. I can confirm the renme issue though.
Sorry, disregard my previous comment, the fields were turned off... Here's a 44sec video showing the issue. https://www.dropbox.com/s/pz7tb5u1gy8zyly/kdenlive-descrition-field_no-edit.mp4?dl=0
