Component:clicked / dbclicked event
You can extend the Video component and in its view add the same event like the one in the Image

Hi, i am trying to use video component to upload in the assets manager. And I realize I can leverage editor event component:selected to do so.
it works but not perfect. I prefer to use double click to trigger assets manager to open.
If we can have an event like component:clicked/dbclicked, it would be better
