Platform

Operating system and version: Windows 10 20H2
OBS Studio version: 26.0.2, 26.1.0-rc1, current master

Expected Behavior

The Edit menu's contents should make sense for the currently selected source. Including if the source is deselected.

Current Behavior

The enabled/disabled state of menu items in the Edit menu are only set when the user right clicks a source in the Sources box or when a specific action in the menu is triggered, but not when a source is selected/deselected.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Add two sources to a scene. Lock one.
  2. Right click on the locked source. Notice the Transform sub-menu is mostly disabled.
  3. Open the Edit menu. Notice the Tranform sub-menu is mostly disabled.
  4. Right click the unlocked source.
  5. Left click the locked source (without opening its context menu)
  6. Open the Edit menu. Notice the Transform sub-menu is mostly enabled, as it would be for an enabled source.

Additional information

Other menu entries affected:

When a source is deselected:

  • Copy
  • Copy Filters
  • Paste Filters
  • Transform (and submenu)
  • Order

When a source is selected:

  • Transform submenu

Probably best to visit our Discord and chat about what your skillset is and what you are actually trying to accomplish. I will be frank, OBS is not exactly a great project for beginner coders, so best to talk with us first on Discord.
