[Feature]: Configuring the bottom panel show/hide height

[bruhov]

What problem would this solve?

I have a fairly large screen, and I like viewing photos in full-screen mode with the UI completely hidden. Often, after opening an image, I have to move the mouse cursor quite a bit to get the bottom panel to hide. This is because the code currently has a hardcoded threshold of 30% of the screen height (with a minimum of 100px).

Proposed solution

Could a setting be added to adjust this percentage? I’d like to be able to reduce it to match the height of the bottom panel itself.

With an appropriate mouse DPI setting it is only takes a quick flick to make is disappear.

Picasa takes a different approach. If the mouse is stationary, the UI hides. It then re-appears on downward movement, regardless of screen position. I prefer the FlyPhoto approach.

I don't mind the approach in FlyPhotos; I just want to customize it a bit for my own convenience.

I would prefer not to add one more setting to Fly just for this.
Either we reduce the 30% to something of the actual computed height of bottom controls OR mixing in the picasa approach too.

I think for UX is still needs to appear before you reach it. So perhaps something like height + 100 pixels.

Hi,
Can you please check ? Now the show area is limited to bottom panel + 20px buffer on top.
