Manual on page 31, 1.7 Clips, "View clip properties by ..... double clicking the clip"
Function should be implemented, or reference removed from manual
Hello @leodf1. I wonder if this functionality should apply to an effect icon as well? I was even thinking a single click on an effect should open the Properties page of the Effect.
Thoughts?
I hadn't thought about it. Yes, I agree.
I think it would be better to maintain the double click paradigm for opening Properties, even at the expense of the wasted function opportunity for the single click. Better to maintain consistency of action across as many functions as possible. Single click of the icon still switches to the Effect properties when the Panel is open.
Thanks
Agreed!
