Bonsoir,
In audacious preferences, there exists the possibilty to hide the player.... When you use this, the player disappear.....
Well! And how to get it visible after that?
Erase the config file?

This might be the same thing that happens me with Spotify - try moving the mouse to the very bottom right of the screen and a black bar should appear along the bottom. There might be an icon for audacious there.
Erase the config file?
Or this :)

No. Run "audtool --mainwin-show on". If you still have any Audacious window open, such as the playlist window, you can press Alt+M to toggle the main window.

No. Run "audtool --mainwin-show on".
Thanks, this worked.
But what is the utility of this possibility to hide the audacious window? After doing this, if any music is playing you have no other choice (except the one you indicate) than to use a killall to stop audacious!

To reduce screen space usage in flexible ways. E.g. to keep just the playlist window open, because it is sufficient to control the player with the tiny buttons at the bottom.
Also, to implement features that have been available in XMMS, too. Some of the features of the Winamp UI probably won't be readded after Audacious 3, but in 2.5.x they are still available.
Anyway, meanwhile I prefer the GTK interface over the skinned one.

Not true either. No need to kill it like that.
For example, you could still run audacious -m, or run audtool to control the running Audacious instanced in many ways. Just read "man audtool" and/or audtool --help.

The point of hiding an interface would be get it out the way when you need all your screen space, and you have some other way of controlling the player (e.g. some other program, or special hotkeys on your keyboard).
It's kind of unusual for a GUI program to not leave some footprint, somewhere, for you to mouse over and control it. Such as an icon in the status notification area on the old taskbar.

A status icon is available and can be enabled on demand. With it, you can open a window and then reopen the main player window, too.
