Feature description:
Allow the user to remove the size difference between inactive and active lyrics lines. Highlighting then only happens through different colours/brightness or slight changes in font weight.
Problem solved:
Since 13.6.0B1, the option to adjust the weight of active vs. inactive lyrics lines separately has been removed.
The default size difference between inactive and active lines is (at least for me) far too big and really distracting.
When the active line has the right size, the inactive lines are way too small.
Or when the inactive lines are the right size, the active line is way too big.
Brought benefits:
Only changing the highlighting without changing the font size leads to less jarring transitions and the entire lyrics text remains at a readable size. While reading/singing along to lyrics, the eye usually already scans over the next line while the current line is still sung. Having such a size difference between the lines makes the next line hard to read and the transitions distracting.
Other application solutions:
Symfonium prior to 13.6.0B1
MusicBee
Additional description and context:
Huge size difference between active and inactive lines in current version:
I personally prefer the way MusicBee handles the highlighting with a minor change in weight, the rest being different brightness of the lines.
On a side-note:
Am I seeing things or are the active lines first displayed in a big font but normal brightness for a frame and only then get their brightness changed in the next frame?
