How to automatically hide the taskbar?

User Support General

I would like to enable taskbar auto hide so that it’s only visible when I run the mouse over it. (Like the Windows taskbar or the MacOS dock)
Is this possible?

In the task bar properties, available via right click, there is a option to auto hide it.

I can’t find a place to “right-click” anywhere in the taskbar which identifies as the ‘taskbar’.

Is there an alternative way to change the taskbar settings?

Hi,
it wasn’t and still isn’t Qubes specific.

When you right click on the taskbar choose:
Panel > Panel Preferences > Display > Automatically hide the panel

It is also available via the menu:
Apps Menu > System Tools > Panel
