Something has changed with how the Music app works on a Mac. I used to be able to change the size of the MiniPlayer, but now I don't have access to the resize handles on the corners. The default size is WAY too big by default and really makes it unusable.
Is this deliberate?
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15
Greetings, ParisTexan.
I see that you're unable to change the size of the MiniPlayer in the Music application on your Mac on macOS Catalina. The default size is larger than you want to use, and I'm glad to help with this.
Use Music MiniPlayer on Mac -- Not only can you hide large artwork or the Up Next queue, you should be able to drag the sides or corners to resize the MiniPlayer.
How to use safe mode on your Mac -- If you can't resize it using the sides or corners, restart your Mac in safe mode and see if you can adjust the size of the MiniPlayer in Music, then apply the steps provided referring to the information below:
Let me know how that goes.
Take care.

Jameson,
Yes, I was able to resize the MiniPlayer when in Safe Mode. I changed it and exited the Music app before restarting my Mac. It was the correct size when I launched the app again.
Thanks!
You're welcome, ParisTexan. We're glad we could help.
Have an excellent day!
What's up with MiniPlayer?
