Bug Description

When I take an file per drag and drop from the project files list and the mouse moves once over the timeline, I can't go back (e.g. when I noticed that I grabbed the wrong file) with the mouse and drop it over the project files list again. It will be added then and the programme doesn't care where I will drop it now. However, I think this is a bug because the little "+"-Symbol moves ("flies") back to the project files when dropped anywhere else than on the timeline.

OpenShot Version 1.0.0 is used here.

Would be lucky if this could be fixed because it is quite annoying when having to delete it again with right mouse click again - sometimes I click on the wrong object then ;-)

Thx!,

P.S.: If you have any further questions about this bug just ask :-)

Why would you drag it back? Just right-click the clip in the timeline and choose Remove clip.

Because it just makes sense. You can just drop it again in the project files list - no problem. But when you once hovered the timeline - no chance.
Why not right click --> delete? Because it already happened to me that I chose the wrong clip to delete (not on purpose of course ;-) )... And because of the lack of a redo function this can be really annoying...
