Description

Describe the feature you'd like to request

I think it is better if the close-button (right top cross) on top does not move away when scrolling to a face. If I don't find the right face, I have to scroll all the way back to see the close button.

Describe the solution you'd like

The cross should stay there and only the photos should scroll.
(and I think the images on the 'select another person window' can be slighter taller)

Describe alternatives you've considered

I haven't. I think the close button should always be visible on the top-right of a window. Using the escape key does work b.t.w..

Thanks for everyone that put all the effort in this app!
