Music - No way to change playlist header size?

I use Music on my Mac a lot to make playlists to suit my mood. These days, when I go into a playlist, slightly less than a third of the screen is just... dead space. The playlist header, with album art and description and all that, takes up a ton of room relative to the amount of information it contains. It limits the number of songs - the things I'm actually on that screen to see or sort through - which can appear at once. With 'list size' set to medium in Music Preferences, and looking in song view, I can see a grand total of 31 songs. If I was able to adjust - or better, get rid of - the header, probably another 15 or songs would be visible.


kalibhakta had the same complaint on 12/23/20, and the answer someone provided was to go into preferences and tick the 'song list boxes' to bring back the checkmark boxes by the songs, completely misunderstanding the nature of the grievance.


Is there any solution for this, or am I just stuck with it until Apple does another design revamp?

Use Feedback - Apple Music - Apple to share your thoughts with Apple. Checking current behaviour in Catalina and Big Sur I see that when viewing as a playlist the header scrolls away, but when viewing as songs it doesn't. It would be nice if it scrolled away in both modes, and also in the Albums view as that too currently includes a fixed header area.
