📄 Description

Description

Not sure on this one, but the other options also seem bad!

  1. this approach, respect the icon that the user hovered on, make the other an auxilliary
  2. show both all the time (current master behaviour)
  3. show them in the same order all the time (means when you hover on the automations, it jumps to the right and the notes icon takes its place, then you've got to mouse over to hit the automation icon)
  4. reserve space for each, show only the active one (permanent waste of space, looks weird too)
