Description Allan Day 2016-12-01 18:19:22 UTC 
The padding in the player bar is quite low, which makes it feel cramped and a bit awkward. It would also help if the elements could be grouped using different levels of padding, in order to help users visually process the controls.

In addition, it would be good if the player bar was consistent with the one in Videos, in order to communicate that they are both core parts of the desktop.

Some visual guidance on how this could be done:

There are some related changes to be made in Videos - see bug 763265 for that.

PlayerToolbar.ui: Change player toolbar UI

The gnome-music player toolbar was consistent with videos. Also the
elements were not grouped properly. It also didn't have proper padding
which made it look cramped and awkward.

The above changes are made keeping in mind the guidelines as specified
