System Information
Operating system: Windows-10-10.0.22621-SP0 64 Bits
Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN/PCIe/SSE2 NVIDIA Corporation 4.5.0 NVIDIA 474.30

Blender Version
Broken: version: 3.6.0, branch: blender-v3.6-release, commit date: 2023-06-27 08:08, hash: c7fc78b81ecb
Worked: (newest version of Blender that worked as expected)

Short description of error
Some intermittent problem but very easy to reproduce because it happens very frequently when I click a corner of the motion tracking marker to resize the pattern size it unselects the marker. So you have to keep clicking around or moving the marker with G to make it work again. Please see GIF attached for demonstration.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  1. In Movie Clip Editor load a video.
  2. Ctrl+LMB any point in the video to add a Marker.
  3. Move the lower corner of the marker to adjust pattern size.
  4. Click the Track Markers button specifically the one with tooltip Track the selected markers forward by 1 frame.
  5. Then try to click the corner of the marker again many times differently with different distances from it until it suddenly keeps unselecting the marker.

Note that this bug is intermittent and only occurs sometimes, but it happens so frequently that it is actually easy to reproduce with multiple tries. The workaround is to move the marker with G which mostly works but not always. Please see gif of multiple attempts of reproduction.

My OS is Windows 11 pro but for some reason the Help > Report a Bug feature mistakenly put "Windows-10-10.0.22621-SP0 64 Bits" in the ticket. anyway probably trivial detail.

Not sure if this is a bug or a behavior improvement. On the one hand, one widget has an explicit division into 2 types of dragging. On the other hand, this is clearly not a mistake.

Microsoft, for some reason that no one can quite explain, has decided to define Windows 11 as the build number being greater than 22000, while leaving the 10 in place. 🤷‍♂️

Can't really reproduce this on linux. Likely a widget boundary issue, could you give us a file that replicate the issue? It might be the specific widget angle that fails. Thanks!

Hi, unable to confirm either. Example file would be helpful.
Also: can you check what Undo history and info tab has recorded during that sequence of clicks?

I think we can close this until you could come up with a better way to reproduce this. 😅
