On macOS it would be a better user experience to not have buttons positioned near the top corners of the display, as this is what also triggers the menu bar appearance in full screen mode. About half the time when I’m either trying to close a video or refresh metadata, I trigger the menu bar instead:
Can these buttons be moved, or can you provide keyboard shortcuts as a workaround?
It is; what I meant is that there can’t be an expectation to be able to use ESC to stop playback in that context as this would first exit full screen mode (which I prefer not to do).
