Unfortunately I can't open the attachment (due to missing char support?)

Which Mixxx version is affected?
Which skin are you using?

Oh, I'll attach later.
Mixxx Version is 2.3.3(and 2.3.0 has same issue) with Shade skin.

I think I know what's causing this, just needed the details.
So there's no need to upload another huge video, thanks.

I can't confirm with latest release 2.3.3 or main branch (2.4)

I don't have a mac to test with.
Could you post the artist and title strings separatly here, so I can test with a renamed dummy track?

Maybe this is happing with a certain splitsize only (library sidebar / library table).
If you experience the wiggeling again, please

• save the artist / title tags somewhere and post here
• close Mixxx
• open .mixxx.cfg, see https://manual.mixxx.org/2.3/chapters/appendix/settings_directory.html
• find the line containing "librarySidebar_splitsize" (in the [Skin] section)
• post the value pair here

• Sample Tags 1
  Artist : Charles Norman Quintet, Charlie Norman
  Title : Handy: St. Louis Blues (Arr. C. Norman) - Boogie Woogie On St. Louis Blues
• Sample Tags 2
  Artist : Si Cranstoun
  Title : Lonesome Heart Bandit (Heavy Duty Mix)
• mixxx.cfg
  librarySidebar_splitsize 370,1304

In addition, I found that when the song to be analyzed for the first time was loaded into the Preview Deck, a wiggling phenomenon occurred.
If I load a song that wiggled when it was loaded into the Preview Deck into the Preview Deck again, the phenomenon does not occur.

Alright, I could somehow reproduce.
I don't see the wiggeling you mnention, but shrinking the sidebar is not as smooth as it's supposed to be: when grabbing the splitter and dragging it to the left, the split bar hangs at certain points, then suddenly catches up with the moving cursor. Any size in between these points can only be set by dragging to the right.

Anyway, the fix from #4808 solves this, too.
I'll port it back to 2.3

The next 2.3 bugfix release will take a while I think, so if you're really bothered by this issue you may simply apply the fix to Shade yourself.
See https://github.com/mixxxdj/mixxx/pull/4828/files
