Hiding TLB Portable

I KNOW I saw a setting to have TLB autohide, but I of course cannot find it now that I want to set it up.

Where do I find it, or am I going crazy and imagining it being there?

I got it.

I thought I had it...

I installed TLB (portable) to put what is in effect my Start Menu from v7.5 of TLB.  Two things:

1) It is in the upper left corner of my screen as a button that would drop down a menu.  That part it does fine, but 

1) Somewhere I guess I set something that makes it act like a toolbar, clearing space across the top of the entire screen, and not hiding or allowing any program(s) into that space.  I guess somewhere I set it as a toolbar, not just a button, and secondly, 
2) The button sits there and will not hide.

Where do I find then answers to these issues?

Update:  Well, I think NOW I HAVE solved it/them.  I should take better notes though, because I'm not always clear enough to now I can repeat the process!  Sorry y'all.

I started over and got it all how I want it.  One question though:

The menu button sits up in the upper left, and drops down when I point there...but it does it slowly, like it is animated or something.  What do I need to get the menu button to just "drop down" when I point to the corner, instead of slowly sliding down?  I believe I have all the visual effects turned off, but that didn't help.
