Perfect!

This is exactly what I needed, thanks!

by ofihsdfoi

only partially works

the settings to make it not slide in as quick does not work. no matter what, the moment you put your mouse near the top of the page, the admin bar will show itself. other than that very good.

Simply beautiful!

Simply beautiful! I don’t know why this option not include WordPress at this time. I mean, this dynamic hiding option, not only show and hide.
