Open the clip pool.

(1)
For a clip, it's impossible to uncheck the check-box when it's checked.
However, it's possible to check it if it's not checked.

(2)
The check/uncheck toggle from the contextual menu (right click -> Visible on Clip Palette Menu) does not update immediately the corresponding check box on the clip pool tab.

1) I believe that's because whatever's the active clip stays locked. You can check and uncheck any clip that's not active.

2) I can repro this but I'm not sure if this was by design or not. You can simply uncheck the box for any unactive clip you do not want to show anyway.

1) Not sure. The issue occurs (can't uncheck from the clip pool tab) even if the counter is 0 (used) for the clip.
I can't see any reason why the check box cannot be unchecked.

2) By design or bug : in both cases, this is not logical.
- Insert 2 clips on 2 differents tracks.
- Open the clip pool.
- On the first track, for the clip, uncheck "Visible on clip palette menu" in the contextual menu (right click). Keep the clip pool open.
- Click on track 2, then immediately on track 1 : the check box is now updated for track 1 but it should have been updated earlier, just after the option has been unchecked in the contextual menu.

In other words, the Visible check box should behave like the Loop check box and the Time Signature value.
Whenever it's changed by the contextual menu option, the value must be immediately updated in the clip pool tab.
