Good comments, thank you. I think this kind of sub-divides into two aspects: 1) Making everything work nicer with dark mode and 2) maybe creating a new progress/toolbar layout to be the default for Qt6/KF6 Amarok (a third option, in addition to default "main" and slim toolbar, probably; one has to be careful with adding too many options, but maybe 3 is not too much here.) Thanks for the reply, everything you’ve indicated looks on point. Also, thanks for all your work in keeping this piece of software alive, your efforts are invaluable… |
Created attachment 170655 [details] ss Amarok 3.0.1 Git, see screenshot. The progress bar area of Amarok is not easily legible with a dark theme. The icon buttons are not dark-mode ready, and the buttons being justified makes it look like it wastes the screen estate. It is not designed with wide screen displays in mind. A visual overhaul with the latest Breeze styling would be very welcome. Basing off from this something like: - A retro music system like display, with digital numbers and equaliser visualisation - Some ideas from a modernised WinAmp like display, but adopted to Amarok - Modern applications like Apple Music macOS app, which has a very striking look
