Description ferweer 2020-01-18 12:48:08 UTC
SUMMARY
An example is Chroma Key: Advanced (colorselection). You can check it in the screenshot.
This completely hides the icons for the state manipulation of the effects (display state, reset items, delete, move order).
Also, the only way to display the status icons is to increase the window size, there is no scroll bar!
This will continue to cause this inconvenience unless the user adjusts the size of the property window.
It is not convenient to operate only in such a long window.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Display the effect list
2. Add Chroma Key Advanced
3. Keep the properity tab narrow.

OBSERVED RESULT
The status icon is pushed after the long name, making it difficult to operate and less convenient.

EXPECTED RESULT
Abbreviate appropriately and do not make the width too wide to display the name.

On the properties window appears a scroll bar on the bottom if the effect is to "wide".

Please try with the current Kdenlive AppImage version 19.12.1 to see if there are any packaging issues https://files.kde.org/kdenlive/release/ 

If the problem/issue doesn't occur when using the AppImage, then it's your configuration or packaging.

thanks reply. But even appimage19.12.1 does not show scroll bar.
I tried resetting local / share / kdenlive but it didn't help.

The check was done with kdenlive-20.03.70-0567093-x86_64.appimage.
The names have been properly reduced and the buttons in the effect state are now tighter and easier to operate, thank you.
