Problem or Motivation

If you’re using the controls in the player bar on the bottom of Kaset, it displays the progress of the current song while the mouse is hovering the player bar. This is also the case, if you switch to the next/previous song using any controls, as long as the mouse is hovering the player bar, thus you cannot see which song plays now.

Proposed Solution

If you switch the song while hovering the player bar, the song name, interpret and cover should be displayed for a short amount of time instead of the progress bar, e.g. 5 – 10 seconds, to allow the user to see there which song is playing without moving the mouse.

Alternatives Considered

Alternatively, always show both information if there is enough space available.
