Description Martin Ejdestig 2007-07-20 22:28:45 UTC 
I think the three different visualization modes complicates things a bit uncessecarily without much gain.

It also conflicts with "party mode".
* Enter party mode (which is sort of a fullscreen mode) and enable visualizations with mode set to fullscreen.
* Enable visualizations, enter party mode, change mode to window... presto, no visualization visible... press the visualisation button in the toolbar again and again... nothing seems to happen.

How about getting rid of visualization modes all together? Display it embedded when not in party mode. When in party mode, display the visualization fullscreen after some inactivity and go back to normal party mode when mouse or keyboard is moved.

Granted, this leaves out window mode, but is it really needed?

Or maybe change the party mode part to showing it embedded (as when !party mode) and a while after no user input, go fullscreen with the effect.
