That works pretty well. The main problem it has is that it doesn't remember the previous browse pane width. Ideally, I think you'd have some kind of vertical bar on the side when the playlist is minimized, with text (turned 90 degrees) or something indicating that the playlist is underneat. Also, perhaps some kind of arrow or other indicator when you mouseover the slider hotspot. Adding a vertical bar may require rethinking the nested curved corners a little bit. I've always thought that the outer one was unnecessary and just wastes screen real estate. I like this change a lot, but something I think others might dislike is having the Now Playing and player controls hidden by it. The solution to that could be to have Now Playing in an area outside of what slides left/right. Maybe a horizontal pane that goes the whole way across the screen, either on the top or bottom. I realize, though, that this would be a lot more work. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ JJZolx's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101248 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/beta
