Standalone TLB Properties -- setting the Hot spot size ?

Yeah these near/far/size margins don't make any sense to me. All I really want is that the "top 5" pixels of the screen (where the bar is on the top) do not activate the bar.

Measuring in inches on screen is depends of monitor you are using. So this can be very inaccurate. Anyway try to see this video: http://youtu.be/dJ5ZhRvPvD4
I've tried to explain how the near/far margins are working. The hotspot size just give you some space before screen edge to activate auto-hide. Usually this is useful for multi monitor systems.

Better yet, in my opinion, would be able to say auto-hide (unhide) really only happens while I'm holding down control or alt or some combination.

I think this is the great idea! I'll add this feature in the next version. Thank you.

I'd also like to say that I'm a *long time* user of TLB and I must say Yuri that you have one of the most indispensable tools I have ever had. I cannot believe you still only charge $20 for the product. I'm going to send you a donation right now.

Thank you very much! I very appreciate your donation.
