My preferred approach for scrolling through the main library is to have the book details screen open, while the mouse-and-scroll-control is still on the main Calibre list-display screen.
However, if I then shift m&s-control to the book details screen to make some edits (e.g. paste in a new cover) and then use a mouse click to try to shift m&s control back to the list-display screen, I find that most list-display fields that I might click on will immediately go into edit mode (resulting in issues such as the one in a related thread on trying to reset a numeric field back to undefined

Is there a way to modify Calibre behaviour so that when a single mouse click is used to shift m&s-control from the book-details screen to the list-display screen, the effect is to just highlight the selected book entry rather than go into edit mode for a specific cell?
