@Bee-liever
Was editing my previous post. Well, yeah. I'm afraid of this.
But It wouldn't be a great deal. I was just exploring some new layouts.

Edit:
@Steven
Well, since we can't resize it when not stacked, it was obvious for me that it was not an official feature. My bad.

There's no problem! The only problem is my poor english
If you think you're English is poor, then I wish I could speak about 3-4 other languages as "poorly".  French, Italian, German, Spanish...It would be a dream come true.  Envious!!!!

If the floating tag editor panel is open, and a different tab is opened where the tag editor was left docked in the main panel. I get this error:

a small enhancement for the web browser. When you have this plugin enabled, clicking on a weblink in the track info panel now activates and shows the clicked link in a tab using the plugin (the previous behavior was to open the link in an external browser)

Thanks for supporting this!
But can you enhance its handling of some web pages?

For genius.com, a black box covers last part of lyrics with every song:

http://genius.com/Adele-hello-lyrics
http://i.imgur.com/pYuf3Fs.png

For musixmatch.com, line breaks are ignored.

https://www.musixmatch.com/lyrics/Adele/Hello

Also how about showing the browser only in the main panel? Currently left and right main panel cannot be shown with this browser enabled, which requires re-configuring of the layout.

one of the things i have had a few complaints about is the header bar wasting space and not really being needed.
I think it is needed but what i have done is allowed it to be hidden - right click on the tab header/ Hide Header Bar or Show Header Bar to re-show it again
When its hidden, the main panel menu that was shown in the header bar can also be accessed from the right click context menu for the tab header.
There is also a hotkey to toggle it as well.
I will post an updated version later with this change after some more testing

A small problem - after updating the header bar is hidden by default and reverts back to this state when restarting the app.

Is "recommended artists" in Recommendations (under Services) working for anyone?  I never see anything there.

It was probably related to the other bug because I can't reproduce it after this latest patch.

it requires your last.fm account in order to retrieve the last.fm recommendations ie. you need to have logged into last.fm at least once

if it happens again, redownload again as i made another change
