When I blogged a couple of weeks ago about KDE3 and KDE4, I mentioned that hiding of the task bar is the number one missing feature. Yesterday I talked with Will Stephenson – he was hacking on the sofa in the hallway – and he showed me some new stuff including this one which is now in openSUSE 11.1 Beta3.
To enable it, do the following:
- Unlock the widgets (if yours are locked) with a right click on the desktop and selection “Unlock Widgets” in the menu.
- Configure the taskbar with clicking on the cashew at its left end:
- Now click on “More Settings”:
- And then choose whether you want it changed to “Auto hide” or “Windows can cover”:
Thanks for implementing and backporting this!

“Configure the taskbar with clicking on the cashew at its left end” -> You mean “its right end”. 🙂
You’re right – I meant the other left 😉
