"automatically hide the panel" only with no pressed mouse

When I'm working on a smaller screen, the function "automatically hide the panel" for hiding the tool-panel is very useful. Problem is, if I'm scrolling with the right scrollbar, I often touch the reduced tool-panel and this opens. Very annoying.

Please change that the tool-panel only open, if no mouse button is pressed.

perhaps it is a solution for you to place the panel on the left side?

You can also set the timeout before it opens, so moving the mouse there temporarily, won't trigger it.

I tried it, but I'm a creature of habit :mrgreen:
It's no good solution for me. At my main machine at home (on a wide screen) I have my taskbar on the left side and then the problem is only displaced. I use this preferences on each machine, so I have my taskbar always left. Furthermore I hate the jumping code.

No, I can only set a timeout for closing.

My bad; you're right. Been a while since I set my timeout and I thought it was for opening because I set it 0, and it opens immediately when I move the mouse over it.
