[SOLVED] Can't hide the navigation panel when set to "Auto Hide"

[SOLVED] Can't hide the navigation panel when set to "Auto Hide"

I think this is a bug... or maybe I'm incorrectly using the application?

When I set the navigation panel to "Auto Hide", it is correctly hidden the first time. But when I open it later without starting a connection, I can't get it to hide again. Clicking on other parts of the window has no effect, while I thought it would hide the panel. The only ways to hide it again are to open a connection or resize the RDM window.

Hello,

Could you try and click on the navigation pane tab to see if it hide/unhide?

Did you always unhide the navigation pane before by clicking on the remote session?

Hi Alexandre,




Yes, that works !




No, to this day, I worked without hiding the panel. Do you think you could make it so?

Hi again,

Yes the word has been sent to the engineering team, we'll see if we can do something about it.

It is true that It would be a nice addition.

Best regards,

That's great ! I'll click on the navigation pane tab in the meantime. Hopefully this will be in a future release one day. ☺

Thanks Alexandre !

Found an option that can be useful for others: Options → User Interface → Advanced → ☑ Use mouse hover to show/hide panels.

Also, I missed that before, but the close button can be used to hide the panel:
