Default WMP 10 - getting rid of the Now Playing List pane

Anoyone know how to get rid of the Now Playing List pane at the right? I'd
like to recover the screen space for the track list. Thanks.

Just to the left of that, at the top of the video / visualisations
area is a button with a right-facing green arrow. Click that.

That won't work for other views. You have to go to the Library Options
button, and click the "Show List" entry on the dropdown menu.

Hmm, you're right. Wouldn't it be nice if the Vista media player UI
was made to be "consistent" between views ;-)
