Ide - ToolPanel Hide/Show

[Josh]

If I work on a smaller screen, I would like to use the 'Automatically hide the Panel' option in the ToolPanel settings. Unfortunately, this is a perpetual folding in and folding out when I get to the right margin by using the scrollbar.

I would like to have an additional option in the settings that the ToolPanel only opens when I'm clicking on one of the tabs.



P.S.: To anticipate any suggestions. NO, I don't want to move my ToolPanel to the left side.

the autohide feature would be nice on smaller screens like notebooks but its unusable like that. The little Delay makes it even worse. If it would show/hide immediately on mouse over/out that would be much better.

Yes! I've got it set to automatically hide after 0 ms but it never does; it feels like 500 ms is the real minimum.

I don't even have the timeout option here on Linux in the preferences dialog, though its mentioned in the help in 'Customizing the IDE'. If I change it manually in the prefs file it doesn't change anything and is written back to file as 0 when closing the IDE.
But now i remember i might have tried to use that on Windows before.
Here its like 500ms for show and 1 second for hide.
