AutoHide is somewhat different. From the manual

To save screen space, the panel offers an auto hide feature. When this
feature is enabled, the panel will hide when the mouse cursor has not been
moved over it for a configurable amount of time. If you move the mouse to
the panel's screen border it will show up again.


I might actually start using this because it's quite handy BUT showing up
again behaviour is strange - if I have a Konsole window which overlaps the
panel then the panel will NOT unhide itself - this doesn't happen with a
Netscape or Konqueror window overlapping the panel.

Maybe I was the only one who liked it :-(
