Exit button is misleading in Fullscreen Player

Description

I love the new fullscreen player mode in Jajuk 1.8. However, the first time I used it, I saw the exit button in the top right corner and assumed that would exit Fullscreen mode. Instead, it exited the entire program! This was not expected. (of course I then realized the other button is used to exit fullscreen)

I believe that other users will make the same mistake as it is natural to think that such a button would simply exit fullscreen mode. I think the exit button should either be removed or be changed to make it more apparent that it will exit the entire program.

Perhaps even switching the 2 buttons around so that the exit fullscreen button was on the right and the exit button was on the left would be good enough. Because a user's natural action when they want to exit something is to click the top-right button. I believe the exit fullscreen button will be used more than the exit Jajuk button in my opinion.

Actually, the current behavior is right IMO because the fullscreen mode like the slimbar mode or the main window mode can be run alone (try to exit jajuk in full screen mode, it will remain in this mode at next startup). There's no priority between display modes and we don't want to force users to switch to main window mode to exit jajuk. We set the exit button at right like in others modes.

Ok, that's fine. I just wanted to bring the subject up for discussion. I have no problem with keeping the exit button. I just can see a lot of people exiting Jajuk on accident like I did. Maybe if you made the exit fullscreen button a little larger than the exit Jajuk button??

Just an idea. It's not that important of a situation. Keeping it like it is would probably not cause too much trouble.

Sure, thanks for your feedack.

We don't plan to change the buttons layout for now. Our opinion could evolve if such feature are asked in the future. We want to keep things simple and coherent for 1.8 initial release.
