Allow me to customize the hover zone #25

It would be nice to manually adjust the Hover Area Size and not just the Touch Area Size.

Okay I just realized this is Hidden Width. Is there any chance you could make this side bar invisible (like 0 width) and have an invisible hover zone that extends out into the editor pane? This way increasing the hover zone does not decrease the size of the editor pane.

Hi, yes indeed the hiddenWidth config is for this.

Allowing to set it to 0 would add a lot of complexity, so I don't know if I want to support this. I'll think about it and see if I can come up with a simpler solution. I've set hiddenWidth to 1, and the tree view is barely visible.

So yeah i was thinking just make it 1px but then make the hoverable-area bigger. Like you don't have to move the mouse over the actual gutter. But I switched up my window arrangement a bit and i don't find this as pressing of an issue anymore (before, the mouse would move past the edge of the window, but I reoriented the file tree so I can push the mouse to the edge of the screen).

Ah I see. That would be nice! I'll look into implementing it in a while.

olmokramer commented 9 years ago

I just implemented this. There's a new setting, hoverAreaSize, that sets the width of an invisible area on the edge of the screen that you can hover (or click) to show the tree view. You can also set hiddenWidth to 0 now. I'll release this tomorrow, after I can get some more testing done.

Hey, I just published the new version. Please let me know what you think!
