Summary	0020746: Lyrics panel title bar could display Title (and Artist) of playing track
Description	If the Preview and Playing panels and Player are hidden from the window, there is no any indication what song is playing, even if the Lyrics panel is displayed. And when the playing track doesn't have lyrics, there is displayed "Lookup" and nothing more. I think it is obvious that that panel represents the lyrics of the playing song, there is no point for the "Lyrics" to be displayed in the title bar, just like you decided to not include "Preview" in the title bar of Preview panel. I think it would be more useful if the title bar of Lyrics panel displays Title (and maybe Artist) of playing track.

lowlander 2025-08-06 22:38 developer ~0079218	Implemented on 3161. However this seems quite useless as this information is cut off, thus not providing the information. If the user wants to see the currently playing file the Player, Preview, Playing and Playing queue already are able to show this. image.png (6,796 bytes) image.png (6,796 bytes) image-2.png (6,039 bytes) image-2.png (6,039 bytes)

rusty 2026-09-16 21:45 administrator ~0082210	This issue isn't resolved in 3521, however, I don't think that it should be, for the reasons described by lowlander. That said, I'm leaving this open as a child of 0020505 since we should review the current implementation of different elements vs items included in the Preview window. e.g. - why is Lyrics a separate element but not Visualization - why is Lyrics in Preview and duplicated as an element
