It's already an auto-hide widget. Without going into technicalities, the top, bottom, and sidebars are just displayed alongside the central canvas, so opacity can't be used here. I fixed up the old code which keeps the canvas steady when the left or top bars hide, so you don't get the huge distraction of the canvas moving position on screen when the automated hide event happens. It had broken under GTK3 due to some internal changes in the way offsets are calculated. > drawing at any border of a screen is usually very iffy anyway,but I do like > having my vertical space without much visual obstructions Sure; they should all get out of the way sensibly. > one thing I cannot see.

You can turn off autohide globally, and when drawing with the pen down autohide doesn't happen. > a button or a keyboard stroke? cause I feel that autohide is good,but > sometimes you do need only one open for a longer time. how does that work? Tab shows and hides the UI still, but differently. It toggles whether autohide is enabled, and when you turn it off, all the UI reappears. Turning it on makes it all go away. I'm trying to figure out whether/how different bits of the UI could be turned off permanently.

But with those options maybe things will be more stable. -- Andrew Chadwick _______________________________________________ Mypaint-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/mypaint-discuss
