Hi Tom,
Are you using Kdenlive on Linux? If so, you may try the appimage or the
flatpak install. If your distribution's install has any kind of issue,
using those other installs may help. Also, you can make sure that your
Kdenlive is up to date with flatpak or with the latest appimage from the
kdenlive website : https://kdenlive.org/en/download/
I hope this helps.
Cheers,
François

My ~/.config/kdenliverc file is the only thing that's changed in the last
months. I removed it, restarted kdenlive, and although everything looks
different (my preferences are back to defaults), I'm seeing the same behavior!
Another weird symptom: with the playhead over a clip in normal mode, I Ctrl-R to cut a
clip, and it gives me the error "No clip to cut". Not sure if this is usual
behavior I just haven't noticed since it used to be much easier to select a clip before
cutting it.

Interesting.
In troubleshooting, it's usually the thing you were playing with last that
is causing the current problem.
So, what happened between the last time it was working properly, and now?
Have you tried renaming or removing your kdenlive config files?
If you have only made minimal config changes, just wipe them... if, on the
other hand you changed just about every setting, rename the config files to
.backup or something, and let kdenlive create new ones.

Hi Evert, thanks for the help.
In other applications Shift and Alt behave as expected.
I've switched between normal, cut, and move/spacer modes with no apparent
change.
Another strange thing: right-clicking a clip no longer brings up a menu
(in Kdenlive - in other applications, no problem).
The only change I've noticed after restarting Kdenlive is that the "Cannot
perform operation" error doesn't (at least not yet) appear when I ungroup
clips with Ctrl-Shift-g
Thanks,
Tom

Sticky keys? It sounds like one of the shift or alt keys on your keyboard
is stuck?
Try switching between normal (s) cut (x) and move (m) modes on the
keyboard
Open notepad, and type some text, see if all the keys on your keyboard
work
as expected.
Those are my guesses...

Another clue: I'll attempt to group or ungroup clips, and get an error
"Cannot perform operation while dragging in timeline"
If anyone can help in the next ~3 hours, this is seriously impacting an
important deadline.
Thanks,

I've seemingly entered a strange mode in Kdenlive where when I try to
select a clip it instead moves the playhead to wherever I just clicked.
This setting appears to survive restart of Kdenlive.
Have I accidentally enabled some strange per-project setting? And
most
importantly, how do I turn it off?! I'd like the playhead to move only
when
I click the position ruler.
Thanks,
Tom
