Sorry for asking this, i been include an auto startup in i3 with the below line

exec_always --no-startup-id hideIt.sh -N '^polybar-mainbar-i3_LVDS1$' -d bottom -s 1 -H &

but the polybar still wont startup hide.

And i already included override-redirect = true.

Manually run it on terminal, it working fine.

Most likely this is because the window doesn't exist yet.

Try:

exec_always --no-startup-id hideIt.sh -w -N '^polybar-mainbar-i3_LVDS1$' -d bottom -s 1 -H &
