Default Item volume control setting: hide vol knobs (text only)

I don't like using handles for volume control because when the volume is really low I can't see the fades clearly. However, the volume knob takes up too much space and then I can't see take names without zooming in. I use mouse modifiers to change the volume of items and don't need a physical control. It would be great to have an option to hide vol knobs.

You can use the option to show text above the item to get around this. prefs/appearance/media

This doesn't change the problem. The volume knob is positioned above the item too and still takes up space.

An option to hide the item volume knobs would be great. I personally use keyboard shortcuts to adjust item volumes, and never touch the knobs...

I use take volume and never ever use this knob but I still prefer it instead of the handle that get in the way especially if we minimize the tracks.
An option to hide this icon will let us see more useful info in the item label.
