• Click on cover for play/pause
  
• Double click cover for next song
  
• Scroll on the cover for volume change or use the slider
  
• Click on the song info text for song management
  
• Configure the visuals in the widget settings
  

• This main goal is to provide a visually driven experience. So we assume that most of your songs have embedded covers.
  
• All songs should have the album-artist tag filled out to show up under Artists. We assume that too.™️
  
• Hopefully most of the interface is self explanatory. (Of course it is!)
  
• Hover over interface elements for tooltips and shortcuts.
  
• If you see a cover-image left or right click on it, there's usually some functionality.
  

• The widget is downloading covers in the background when it thinks it needs them.
  
• Here MPD serves the covers at a handful of kB/s. If a certain someone put a multi-MB image into a audio-file then that cover may take a minute to load into the cache. The same applies if a audio-file is very big (long duration). - Don't force it. Give it a minute or two to churn through. Just use the widget naturally.
  
• While downloading many covers - mostly affecting the initial download rush after using the song-management for the first time - controlling mpd may feel sluggish or delayed. This will settle after the covers are cached locally.
  
• Right click on the widget cover for clearing the local cover cache. Use it in case of emergency only. This should not be necessary unless hitting a bug. Or you deliberately want to manually trigger a redownload because there are updated covers available.
