Floating Video Controls #304

Open apastel opened 1 year ago

apastel commented 1 year ago

When playing a scene that uses a library of mixed photo and video content, the Video Controls only appear in the sidebar while a video clip is showing, causing the menu item to pop in/out, pushing the other menu items up/down in the process and making them difficult to click on. test

I can make the problem go away by adding an Overlay to the scene. Then when I play the scene, the Video Controls stay in the menu panel consistently. I can then remove the Overlay if I wish, and the Video Controls will still stay in the panel consistently.

I'm running v.3.2.1 but have noticed this issue for a long time and just never had a chance to report it

Yea this was sort of a design choice I made ... like if there is no video to show ... why show the Video Options? But yea ... it does make this kind of annoying. I can change it so that, once a video is played, the menu jsut stays there even if a video is not currently visible 👍

Could we get floating controls and hotkeys, if we're on the topic

I've fixed it so that the Video Controls, once visible, will stay in the sidebar. The controls themselves will appear/disappear when a video is present or not, but you can just minimize the section and it won't hop around like that anymore.

Floating controls will take more time. Would like to include hotkeys too.
