Auto-Hide
When a panel is in auto-hide, a tab appears on an edge of the screen that controls the panel’s display. When the cursor rests on the tab, the panel displays, and when it is moved away from the tab and the displayed panel, the panel disappears.
To auto-hide a panel, do either of the following:
§ Right-click the panel’s title bar, and from the shortcut menu, select Auto Hide.
§ Click the pushpin icon on the panel’s title bar.
To view an auto-hidden panel:
§ Move the cursor over the panel’s tab.
Note: If you want to hide the panel again, move the cursor off the panel.
To restore a panel from auto-hide, do either of the following:
§ Right-click the panel’s title bar, and from the shortcut menu, clear the Auto Hide option.
§ Click the pushpin icon on the panel’s title bar.
