Title: Peekaboo controls + missing image
Post by: David_1cog on March 17, 2006, 11:56:27 am

Having lived with the new 'peekaboo' controls (i.e. they only appear on hover over a tile) for a few days, I'd like to request an option to switch it off and have controls permanently displayed.

It looks nice having the minimal display, but I find it reduces usability - I constantly have to adjust mouse position to hit the control link I want after I make it appear.

Also, the new 'picture frame' missing image isn't floating my boat.  It just adds visual clutter IMHO and makes artist / album names illegible if they're long-ish, because the text needs to be shrunk in to the window.  I'd be happy to see a plain gray tile, as it was before.

Your not still using a ball style mouse are you?  ;)
