About "Menu bar items are rehidden after a fixed time of 30 seconds." #39

Closed smart-z closed 3 months ago

smart-z commented 3 months ago

Is it possible to set the maximum value to 5 minutes, 300 seconds? Currently, the maximum value is 30 seconds, and the consequence is that when I click on the menu bar, it closes. Then I have to open the menu bar again.

It's a bit like when some people set their phones to enter power-saving mode after 5 seconds to save battery. So often, you can see these people's eyes just leave the screen, and the phone locks, and then they start unlocking it again. I wonder how many times these people have to unlock their phones in a day?

Please consider! THANK YOU !!! ❤️❤️❤️

Is 30 seconds really not enough? If you have it set to 5 minutes, why even hide the menu bar? I'm willing to consider it, but I just don't see a use case for it.

I prefer it clean, so I want to hide icons on the menubar. For me, 3 minutes is enough. Sometimes I use an app to hide icons for about 1-2 minutes, so when I open this app, after about 10-15 seconds, it disappears. Then I have to repeat the process. Of course, moving the app to the visible area solves my problem. So, that's my problem, too THANK YOU

Perhaps the smart rehide option would be a good fit for you as well?
