Well you aren't meant to, it scrolls to the left, that's what it does.

Really it's far better suited to not being maximised. I think you'll
get the idea.

Amusingly, I spent 5 minutes on that, and hours on the scrolling column thing.

The point I think is, everything scrolls to the left, and then the
context view will widen perhaps, then you get a similar view to how
amarok is now. one column of browser, context view, then playlist on
the right.

At least that's how I'd see amarok use it. For inara I have other plans.
