0.7.1
Bug fixes: - Track position slider doesn't work properly with long track
There's also a gap between the album cover and the text. Perhaps you could make this dynamic? And when you try to change the maximum width, the text is no longer centred. It goes further to the right.
Hi, thank you for the review and the suggestions, here are the github issues to track the progress of this features/bugs:
- Having option to disable scrolling completely -> https://github.com/ccatterina/plasmusic-toolbar/issues/45
- leave tittle only -> https://github.com/ccatterina/plasmusic-toolbar/issues/25
- when you try to change the maximum width, the text is no longer centred -> https://github.com/ccatterina/plasmusic-toolbar/issues/46
Regarding the gap between album cover and text, do you mean in the extended view or in the panel when you select to "use album cover as panel icon"?
Bro, forget about my second reply. I woke up today and everything that I mentioned are gone, I'm sorry lol. I guess it was on my side and I had to log out? The album cover on my panel was stuck for some reason and it wasn't moving along with the song title. And that's why text went to the right instead of being centered.
Also added some comment on github.
Text scrolling is very slow, it would be great if it could be speeded up a bit. When I add the music text to the dock it aligns it down. Is it possible to align it in the middle?
Regarding the text scrolling speed, I could add a configuration to choose the speed (you can track the progress here: https://github.com/ccatterina/plasmusic-toolbar/issues/1).
For the text alignment, could you add an issue on github (https://github.com/ccatterina/plasmusic-toolbar/issues/new) with a screenshoot? On my computer the text is already aligned in the middle. Thanks

10 Exactly what I needed. Having option to disable scrolling completely and to leave tittle only would be great.
