Adjusting effect size and position in the monitor modifies wrong effexct

SUMMARY
When a clip with multiple effects applied gets selected, the focused effect in the properties pane and the active adjusting rectangle in the monitor pane do not match each other sometimes.
This leads out frequent mistakes that slows down the productivity.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Prepare some video clips on the timeline
2. Add transitiom effect to the first clip
3. Add Automask effect to the same first clip
4. Copy the first clip and paste effects to the next clips
5. Click select effect-pasted clip --- A
6. Adjust red rectangle in the monitor pane

OBSERVED RESULT
A. In the properties pane, the Transition effect is focused, and in the monitor pane, the adjusting rectangle for Automask is highlighted as red.
B. The area of Transform effect gets changed

EXPECTED RESULT
A. Dosen't matter which one is focused in the properties pane, but should be correctly related to the adjusting rectangle in the monitor pane.
B. Automask effect should be adjusted, because the position and size of the rectangle was for automask.

Hello and thanks for your report. 

The automask effect if being rewritten for the next major release of MLT (version 7). We are tracking progress of this task here in case you'd like to follow up: https://invent.kde.org/multimedia/kdenlive/-/issues/991

Will close this issue here. Do test after the release and let us know if it still happens.
