Bug ID: 471362
Summary: "What's This" popup interferes with shortcuts that use
"Shift"
Classification: Applications
Product: kdenlive
Version: 23.04.1
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR

The tooltip and pop-up described in the bug report.
SUMMARY
Some actions trigger a small floating box with explainer text to appear. For
example, zooming the timeline results in a small rectangular box appearing in
the lower right corner of the window. This popup says something along the lines
of
```
Zoom Level: 10/21
Press **Shift** for more.
```
This tooltip is mostly harmless by itself, however if you press `Shift` while
the tooltip is present, it replaced with a solid black pop-up with a "What's
This?" type of explanation about the element. For example,
```
Slider to adjust the
zoom level.
```
This is problematic, because this "What's This?" pop-up steals the focus from
the main window and eats the "Shift" keypress. As a result, doing some action
quickly followed by a hotkey that starts with "Shift" results in this pop up
appearing and the hotkey action not triggering.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create enough tracks or resize the window so that the timeline can be
scrolled vertically
2. Focus the Kdenlive window (click on the timeline)
3. Hover over the timeline, press Ctrl and mouse scroll to zoom into the
timeline (the first tooltip shoul appear)
4. Release Ctrl and instead press Shift and mouse scroll (attempting to
vertically scroll through the timeline tracks)
OBSERVED RESULT
A black box steals focus from the kdenlive window and no vertical scrolling
occurs.
EXPECTED RESULT
The timeline is scrolled vertically as expected.
