Auto-hide the Taskbar

The Taskbar occupies the bottom area of one display under Windows XP/2000. In a multi-display desktop, the usable desktop area for applications is thus less on one monitor than on others. For many users, this works fine – certainly the ability to have the Taskbar always visible can be a convenience. However, some users who wish to maximize application windows across all displays may wish to reclaim the space used by the Taskbar.

Windows XP and 2000 offer an option to “auto-hide” the Taskbar – the Taskbar disappears (auto- hides) most of the time, and appears when the user wants to use it. To make the Taskbar reappear, the user simply moves the mouse pointer near the bottom of the screen containing the hidden Taskbar, and the Taskbar appears automatically.

Windows 2000: auto-hide the Taskbar

2.Select the checkbox “Auto hide”.

3.Click “OK” to apply the change and close the dialog box.

Note: to turn off the auto-hide feature, simply return to this dialog box and uncheck the “Auto hide” option.
