Created attachment 73355 [details] Display after letting Amarok progress to the next track
The lyrics are displayed fine here when i bring up lyrics applet. Using v2.6.90-26-gbcdd84c
It only seems to happen if I start music playing with Amarok without opening the main window and then opening the main window.
Mark, could you eventually test Amarok 2.7 beta?
Still not displaying correctly in Amarok 2.6.90 and KDE 4.9.90.
Thank you for the fast feedback.
Same problem for me: incorrect display of the lyrics, even with amarok 2.7 And indeed, after display becomes correct after the first track. Strange...
Still present in 2.8-git
Created attachment 83825 [details] Lyrics bug in Amarok 2.8
Seems to affect all Amarok applets - they don't display correctly if the main window is opened after play has started. Altering the applet's settings or going to the next track allows that applet to display correctly again.
I can confirm this with Amarok 2.8.0 on Fedora 20 as well. I wasn't aware that changing tracks reset the applet layout which is a convenient workaround. I usually open the amarok gui for short moments unless I want to read the lyrics. But since the lyrics applets is too small then I always resorted to removing and readding the applet to fix it. Jumping tracks is much easier.

Fixed nowadays in KF5 versions, e.g. 2.9.82. Closing.
