Toggle-hide Reply placeholder but show it when 'r' ir 'Reply' is pressed

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I remember the older version had this (<0.6 I think).
Hide the reply box but show it a-lathe Google Bar hide toggle when the reply 
button or keyboard shortcut 'r' is pressed.

This would be awesome :)

Fail on my part, sorry. It should definitely become visible when you actually 
reply...

Working for me still... To help me debug, please right-click your reply 
placeholder and click "Inspect Element". Make the panel of code as large as 
possible and upload a screenshot of it.

Thanks!

Thanks Fred,

1. Dashboard > Gmail > Edit > Main > Message > Hide reply
2. Change `.acV` to `.ac5`

Does that fix the issue?

.ac5 correctly hides the reply box, but pressing 'r' or Reply activates the 
reply function but nothing is displayed. Changing .ac5 to display:block shows 
it again. Seems like it's the right handler but it's not activating during the 
unhide.

What if you change it to `.gt`?

.gt display:none - hides everything in the message  -email address, reply 
button, subject, body!

Just had a fiddle and '.iq' works in both hiding reply box, allowing it to be 
show after pressing Reply, and also to hide again is Discard is pressed.

Interesting, thanks for the help Fred, I will be updating the selector to:
    .acV,
    .iq {
        display: none;
    }
