Hello. I noticed that after Cog-3b628c398 version you start to use single row (slim) window title bar. This may look modern and cool, but in reality this introduce some problems with usability:

Too small free space from top makes very hard to grab with mouse and move window.
Too small free space from sides don't allow to fit many buttons and same time wide enough seek slider.

Is it possible add option in preferences or in "View" menu to switch between modern and "classic" window title bar layout?

Hi, do you ask for option to enable pre-BigSur layout on BigSur?
I think on Catalina nothing has been changed changed.

I ask to enable pre-BigSur layout on pre-BigSur OS. I am on on Mojave 10.14.6 and layout in all versions released after Cog-3b628c398 look like this:

Too small free space from top makes very hard to grab with mouse and move window. (probably not a problem on BigSur because it have larger default toolbar height)
Too small free space from sides don't allow to fit many buttons and same time wide enough seek slider.
