Description

Problem

The problem I see with the queue as it stands now is that there is no way to edit the queue after files have been added. It is possible to add files to the queue but there is no way to move items in the queue or to clear the queue without closing the program

Proposal

I would propose:

  • To add a way to move the items in the queue per drag-and-drop
  • To add a way to be able to remove items from the queue (either through some button on the item itself on the item or through a context menu)
  • To add a way to be able to empty the queue without closing the application

Research direction
Examine the current queue implementation in the codebase, focusing on the model and view. Add drag and drop using GTK's Drag and Drop. Implement remove item via button or context menu. Add clear queue button. Update UI signals accordingly.
