Disable covers being displayed

Thu Jun 07, 2007 10:05 am
Hello,
does anyone know if there is any way to remove the cover icons from tree view? I think it is rather screen eating when you are looking for something and half the view is filled with coverart. It gets even worse when a certain album doesn't even have artwork, so you only have the three line consuming empty icon there.

But anyway, I find it quite nice to look at the covers in the context view, therefore I do not want to remove the executable flag from the .kde/.../albumcovers folder, which I know is kind of a workaround for disabling cover display. Is there another way to achieve this?

Another thing is that sometimes every entry in tree view is doubled. Is this a known bug or did I do anything wrong?
(I run amarok 1.4.5 on kubuntu.)


If there's no easy way to have the cover-displaying behaviour of amarok changed, then maybe someone could present me a link to maybe an earlier 1.3.something or so version of amarok, I couldn't find it here. I think the older versions fitted my needs better than the 1.4 series. (But honestly, I don't know anymore.)

Thanks

In 1.4.5 it only shows the cover if the album is expanded. Is that how your Amarok behaves too?

In tree view it groups as Artist / Album and when an album is expanded, the title of the album spans the size of three rows and on the left it shows the cover (or the default-cover sign), yes.

But the other thing is, that it also expands albums unasked. (When I try to search something. Which is nice sometimes, of course. But not if this makes more tracks disappear to the bottom than necessary.)
