Hello Istvan,

I actually wasn't even aware of this behavior when I was creating the new
Contents Panel! I couldn't add it in time for this release (3.1.4) but I'll
hopefully have something ready in the near future. There are many small
"features" like this in older versions of PyMOL that are difficult to
discover if you've never seen them used before.

If anyone else has any Contents Panel related features that are now
missing, please feel free to send me an email directly and I will do my
best to restore them in future updates. This PyMOL 3.1.4 update includes a
full reimplementation of the Contents Panel based on a request to improve
performance and stability when a large number of objects are loaded in.
Give this version a try before emailing me with a feature request because
it may already be added!

Thanks,
Thomas
