System Information
Operating system:
Win 11

Graphics card:
RTX2060

Blender Version
4.2

Short description of error
Adjustment Layer, Text, Color, and MultiCam are not applied to specific strips, but gets a "Cannot apply effect to more than 3 sequence strips"
image

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Add multiple strips(more than 3) to the VSE.
Select all of them.
Add any of these strips: Adjustment Layer, Text, Color, and Multicam.
Notice the "Cannot apply effect to more than 3 sequence strips" error.

Expected behavior: No error, since none of these strip types are being applied to specific strips. Instead, do add the strip.

Adjustment Layer, Text, Color, and Multicam

Hi, thanks for the report. Can confirm. Quick fix would be to add special case for these 4 layers to avoid error at: https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/src/branch/main/source/blender/editors/space_sequencer/sequencer_edit.cc#L1131-L1132

This is because how selection is handled when adding effect strip. The code has been refactored few times, but it is still quite ugly and over complicated, due to being used in multiple places. IMO adding generator effects should not use this code at all.
