Ephemeral folders: open / browse / play a folder without indexing it —
album-grouped pane, CUE seek fast-path (no full re-decode per virtual track),
folder-path persistence + rehydrate, "already playing" add-vs-replace choice
dialog (ephemeral-only), and now-playing / queue / menu gating so an ephemeral
track exposes no persistence actions.
Folders tree brought 1:1 with Tauri:
- Rail header: select-mode, collapse-all, open-ephemeral, tree search.
- Resizable rail (default ~20% narrower; drag handle, min 50% default /
max 50% of the content area).
- Subfolder cover grid + grid/list toggle, recursive track count, name search;
compact icon bulk bar (folder-check / play-next / queue / playlist / clear).
- Tree is the default mode; circular checkboxes homologated with TrackRow;
compact rows (smaller type + icon, no ambiguous trailing count).
- Flat/Tree icon toggle (disc-album / folder-tree), floated right.
Per-source TrackRow context menu (logic, not a blanket trim): Qobuz/offline =
full; local = play/next/queue + add-to-playlist; plex/ephemeral = play/next/
queue only.
App-wide standard: Math.round pixel-snap on icon centering across the UI to
kill sub-pixel blur (CircleAction, header back/forward/collapse, and the rest).
NowPlayingBar context icon -> turntable (frees disc-album for the Folders
toggle). New assets: folder-check, folder-tree, turntable.

Add drag-and-drop reordering to the Queue sidebar: a per-row drag handle, a
floating drag ghost, and a drop indicator. When a QConnect transport is
connected the reorder is routed to the cloud (CtrlSrvrQueueReorderTracks) so
order stays WS-authoritative; otherwise it moves the local queue track via
core().move_track. The Flickable is non-interactive so a stale pressed_time
cannot strand the gesture and leave phantom scroll after release.
cc
NowPlayingBar / SongCard:
- Audio stamp homologated New<->Classic + vertically centred (alignment:center
on the stamp column; New had a binding-loop card height, now explicit).
- Dot-LED output indicators (circle-dot/circle) in both modes; render-target
badge moved into the LED row when a peer/cast device owns playback.
- Right-cluster buttons made square (32x32); context glyph -> disc-album,
flush-left; classic stamp right margin; quality tooltip = the quality text;
heart tooltip = Add to library; Qobuz Connect tooltip always shows On/Off.
Qobuz Connect:
- Clear the session topology on disconnect so a late event cannot resurrect
the golden render badge (badge-persists-after-disconnect fix).
Queue / Lyrics right panel:
- Queue and Lyrics can both be open at once, stacked vertically in one column
(independent queue-open/lyrics-open flags replace the exclusive right-panel
int); each closable from its bar button and its own X.
- Panel width 280; compact rows (zebra), now-playing card homologated with a
row, flexible footer search, Lyrics title sized like the Queue tabs.
Shell layout:
- Pin AppShell to the window and size the content area arithmetically
(window - header - player-bar - padding). A Slint VerticalLayout ignores an
explicit height and does not auto-fill its parent Rectangle, so the content
row collapsed once the right panels became conditionally mounted; a Rectangle
takes the explicit height and it cascades up. Bar height references the single
Layout.player-bar-height source (note left for the future Small/Large bars).
cc
Icon buttons (header lyrics/queue/hamburger, queue footer) centered
their glyph at a fractional offset (e.g. (36-19)/2 = 8.5px), which
renders blurry — the offset is now rounded to whole pixels. The
header tab spacing dropped from 4px to 2px. The Discover toolbar's
back/forward pair drifted 3px from where the album/artist/settings
views place it; both toolbar clusters now anchor their vertical
center to y=25 so the [<] [>] pair holds one position across views.
cc
The Discover toolbar's side layouts had no explicit height, so they
filled the 56px bar and y resolved to 0 — the tab pill, genre filter
and gear stuck to the top instead of centering. Both now carry
height = preferred-height.
The header sidebar toggle dropped from a 19px to a 14px icon: it now
matches the nav-tab icon size and tint, and the 30px box centers it
on whole pixels (was 5.5px → blurry).
The queue row's click TouchArea was declared after the content, so it
sat on top and ate the context-menu button's clicks — the [...] just
skipped to the track. It is now declared before the content, so the
menu button keeps its own clicks.
cc
Search placeholders rode at the top of the input because the text
had no height to center within — they now span the box like the
TextInput. The queue row context-menu trigger is always visible with
a proper 32px hit area (matching the album track rows) instead of a
hover-only 24px dot cluster, so a near-miss no longer falls through
to the row and skips the queue.
cc
Footer now carries the five Tauri controls with Tauri's icons — clear
(trash-list), save (add-to-list), infinite, sleep timer (clock), and
search; the timer button is visual-only for now. Queue rows gain a
context menu 1:1 with the Tauri queue track menu (Remove from queue,
Stop after this, Remove all after, Add to playlist, Track info); only
Remove is wired, the rest are placeholders.
cc
Port the Tauri QueuePanel into QueueSidebar.slint: a Queue/History tab
switch, a highlighted NOW PLAYING card with a favorite heart toggle, a
paginated UP NEXT list with a Tauri-style counter (UP NEXT (N of M, K
left)) and prev/next page controls, four footer actions (clear, save as
playlist, infinite play, search) plus an inline queue search field.
Tabs and actions are plain text / plain icon buttons with no pill
backgrounds, per the QBZ design rule. All strings go through @tr. The
panel-open width animation is preserved; opening the panel fires
panel-opened so the controller pulls a fresh snapshot.
cc
NavButtons now renders the collapse toggle and history buttons as two
spaced pills instead of separating them with a bar. Queue and Lyrics
sidebars animate their own width open/closed (160ms ease-in-out) so
they slide in like the main sidebar instead of appearing abruptly.
cc
Playback (minimal, album-focused):
- playback.rs controller: play an album (set queue + start audio),
play a single track, enqueue, play a queue index, transport
(play/pause, next, previous, seek, volume)
- the audible step uses Player::play_track (fetch -> download -> play);
the protected audio backend is untouched
- a 450ms poll loop pushes position/progress/times/playing onto
NowPlayingState and auto-advances at end of track
- NowPlayingState / QueueState globals; NowPlayingBar bound to real
state (song card, seek bar, transport, volume); QueueSidebar lists
the queue and rows play on click
- a played track is recorded into the recently-played store
Detail views:
- album description and artist biography stay with the metadata,
filling the width to the right of the artwork (not below the header)
- header nav tabs gained a dropdown caret and 2px side padding
Settings > Playback defaults are now opt-out: show context icon,
restore session, resume position and stream-uncached default on;
streaming-only stays opt-in; initial buffer defaults to 2s.
Known gaps: queue/now-playing artwork not yet threaded (Image is not
Send); autoplay-mode preference not consulted by auto-advance; buffer
progress line stays at 0.
cc
Shell chrome (steps 1-3):
- Left sidebar is collapsible — a toggle in the nav cluster (left of the
[<] [>] pair) and a draggable right edge that resizes 200-420px and
collapses below 160px. ShellState global drives it.
- Queue and Lyrics right sidebars: 320px panels rendered as layout
siblings, so opening one pushes the content area narrower rather than
overlaying it. The header captions/queue buttons toggle them
(mutually exclusive) and light up when active.
- The four nav tabs (Discover/Library/Local Library/My QBZ) open
dropdown menus listing their sub-sections; Discover -> Home is wired.
Detail views (steps 4-5):
- Track rows: the even-row tint is now clearly fainter than the hover
tint so the two states no longer look identical.
- The favorite and offline-cache glyphs in album track rows are real
buttons (hover state, emit media-action).
- Album header artist link uses the metadata text color, bold, instead
of the accent blue.
- Album description and artist biography span the full content width
below the header block.
