Regarding the Tag Panel:
Is it possible to turn off the displaying of the Metadata on the Cover Art? It would be nice to have the Cover Art fill the entire area provided, rather the sizing down to display the metadata about the file (type, dimensions, file size, etc.)
A switch under the "View" menu for "Cover Art Metadata would be cool.
Thanks...

Double-clikc on the picture in the tag panel if you want to see it bigger - a new window will open.
The feature itself was introduced
[2020-12-16] NEW: added displaying image in Tag Panel and reading of dimensions and mimetype when listing image files.

Thank you
That works. I like the way the metadata is one line, at the top. Wish the primary cover window would display the data the same way.
Thanks.

Expanding cover art to fill the space widthwise by moving the art info from the right side to the top/bottom on one or two lines has been mentioned a few times.
Florian noted that he has been considering/planning this for some time and would prefer to put it at the bottom...for scrolling? I'd love to **see** this!

What would be great is if we can control the size of the cover art. Currently it is controlled by the width of the Tag Panel. It would be great if you can make it smaller or larger independent of the Tag Panel width.

Perhaps, the Cover Art Exif Info could be Placed on a single line above or below the Picture. Or, the Cover Art Exif Info could be shown or not shown with a setting switch, allowing the Picture to fill as much of the space as possible.
Thanks
