Bug Description

Platform:
OS: Windows 10 Home
OpenLP: 2.4.5
Severity: Very Minor

What happened:
When right-clicking or middle-clicking an item in the Live list view (not the Service Manager), the selection changes to the clicked item, but it does NOT update the Live view.

What I expected to happen:
I expected either middle/right clicks to be completely ignored or to act like a left click (change selection AND update the live view).

Per Raoul's request (https://answers.launchpad.net/openlp/+question/564970) I'm filing this as a bug report.

I've thought about this more, especially after Raoul said "...we'd basically have to intercept all mouse events, and then selectively ignore or engage them..." (see the linked Q&A above). That's a lot of work to code & test, and that introduces more work that OpenLP does constantly, and it's only to resolve a really minor corner case on one platform (may or may not happen on others) - and let's not forget that some folks are still running on WinXP with much older machines.

Not that my vote counts for much, but I recommend closing this as Won't Fix unless you have other really good reasons for wanting to intercept all clicks to the GUI.
