Why not having two feature list, one on the left as it is actually to
switch the left pane, and one on the right to switch le right pane ?
This way, you click in the left feature list when you want to change the
left pane and in the right feature list when you want to change the
right pane.
With current large screens and hidden text in feature list, there should
not be a space issue.

Hi Mixxx developers
During the review of the library redesign branch, we discovered a
design issue about how to select where a track table of a feature is
shown.
https://github.com/mixxxdj/mixxx/pull/991
Basically there are two valid requirements that at somehow incompatible.
1. A feature track table should re-appear where it was before. It
turns out in live test, that undesired panes swapping is annoying,
especially late at night.
2. User expect, that a track table appears in the focused pane. This
allows to intuitive arrange the desired panes side by side. It is a
known paradigm from two panes file manager like Nemo.
In the current implementation we have tried to predict what is the
best behaviour. Unfortunately it suffers some pending issues. And even
if they are solved, it will remain confusing that the same action does
different things, depending on the context.
What could be a solution?
-------
The discussed Idea.
For me it is important that the Auto DJ tracklist appears on the right
pane after a single click on the library button.
The library view should always left.
Other pane associations should be freely selectable.
Let's add a pin button to the right pane (in fact to all n+1 panes)
This way, by default Mixxx works like known from other Apps (2.)
Following the focus.
In my use case, I can open the Auto DJ in the right pane and pin it.
>From now library panes ... will all appear left. If I need an other
side by side view
I can release the pin.
This does not fullfil pure (1.) but seams to be a good compromise
using I known paradigm.
What do you think?
