Show Volume Level Bubble at Volume Bar instead of mouse pointer

I use the keyboard to change the volume in XMPlay and not the mouse. I use a keyboard shortcut to focus XMPlay then change the volume with keyboard shortcuts without any mouse usage. When changing the volume I am looking at the volume seek bar and the mouse pointer is at a completely different location on the screen. Thus I dont know where to look at.

Is it possible to have a INI setting to have the Volume Level Bubble displayed on / above the center of the Volume Seek Bar specified in the skin? As if the bubble display for what is currently the mouse pointer location at exactly at the center of the volume seek bar would display it perfectly.

I dont use global shortcuts, but for their consideration this is what I thought of. When the XMPlay window is visible - display the Volume Level Bubble on the skin; otherwise if the XMPlay window is not visible then display on the mouse pointer.

Thanks.

I'll look into this. A volume control isn't obligatory for a skin (quite a few skins don't have one in mini mode), so the mouse position would need to still be used in some cases.

Here's an update for you to try:

As well as the volume control, the change also applies to the balance control.
