New design doesn't size properly

Device

ASUS Transformer T101

Operating System

Windows 10

My Question or Issue

My laptop has a pretty small screen (10.1 inch , 1280x800 resolution) and the new update made it so that it cannot even fullscreen properly (see picture, lower half). There is no way of vertically resizing it smaller than what already is in the picture. I imagine you understand where my frustration comes from.

Previously i could switch to the classic version (by adding a line to the prefs file) but now even that doesn't work.

Hey there @kaplis,

Thanks for reaching out about this in the Community, and welcome 🙂

We'd recommend zooming out the app to see if it makes any difference.

You should be able to do this by clicking the three dot menu above Home > View > Zoom out.

Keep us posted on how it goes.

Hello!

The old design admitted looking at 20 - 30 Songs simultaneously on the screen, necessary for comfortable managing and sorting, also allowed this a nice overwiew .

Actually fits only up to 13 entries at max. zoom-out in view, so i'm forced to ask hopefully for a better solution.

A setting for "slim mode" or equal would be nice, like known from mailclients....

Thank you!
