Bug - Long song titles are cut off in player view

[PowerUser64]

In the player view, song titles that are too big to fit in the song title text box are cut off, so you can't read the whole title.

example:

Notice how the song's title text fades out on the right. There is currently no way to know what the full title of the song is in this view.

A way to solve this would be to add marquee to the text so it scrolls from right to left to reveal the whole title.

I assume #220 redesign would resolve this

A marquee would be nice, I'll implement it for names. In the redesign, album names are pretty small so it shouldn't be an issue.

Hello!
I also think a marquee would be nice for long names. The following video shows a possible solution.

Here is the version used in the video https://github.com/Ivanf1/finamp/tree/marquee

It would be nice if the marquee could be a fallback-solution that is only used if the title really doesn't fit. Because the marquee is always a single line, and by default the title is shown over two lines, increasing how much info can be shown at once.

Hi! Yes, I agree, that would be a better solution. I updated the version at https://github.com/Ivanf1/finamp/tree/marquee to implement this. Now the marquee is used only if the song name would need more than two lines to be displayed fully.

Let me know what you think!

@Ivanf1 sorry for missing this! That change looks really nice, and I'd be happy to accept a PR for this!
There's also #754 which does something similar, but for the track menu. But I think your change is still a nice addition!
