| Summary | 0003446: Now Playing shouldn't reposition to centre in response to user interaction | ||||
| Description | The Now Playing list automatically adjusts so that the currently playing track is always around the centre of the list. This is good, however, it causes a problem when this repositioning occurs in response to user interaction with the UI. e.g. -User double-clicks track at the bottom of the NP list -->List repositions and user can't find what they were looking at A related problem is that when Now Playing is configured to Automatically retain x Tracks (where x|=All), if the user double click within the Artist node -->Tracks get added to NP and are centered -->But tracks are then deleted and the view doesn't show the NP track! | ||||

With respect to the first issue: Similarly, if the user is in the process of making a change to Now Playing tracks, it's annoying for the position to shift. Probably the rule should be: If a Visible track of Now Playing is in focus, then the screen shouldn't automatically shift. |

Item 1 is fixed. In case NP is actually focused, position will not be changed. Will be in 1197. |

Item 2 fixed in 1198 |

|
Previous fix (NP will not reposition in case NP is focused) makes sense, but there's one more issue with this solution : When user will have NP focused and clicks on Next/Previous, currently playing track can be off-screen in NP. Per offline discussion with Rusty i've implemented 'activity logging' into VT so MM will know whether user is doing something with VT and in case NP is focused and inactivity is longer than 5 seconds, NP will reposition when track is changing. |
