Hi, is there some coding which would make the Menu Bar in a Mac RR app to be hidden, to only show when the mouse is within a certain distance from it, then to hide again when the mouse is outside of this certain distance, does anyone know please

you can use the hide menubar and show menubar bar commands

with The mouseLoc function. If the mouse pointer is x pixels from the top of the ScreenRect it could show the menubar and y pixels away could hide the menubar.

I have not tried it but can not see why it should not work.

Actually just poking around I also found the screenMouseLoc property witch may help with this.

Thanks Obleo, I obviously didn't have my thinking head on (I'm tending to misplace it more and more these days...

)

I'll give that a whirl tomorrow.
