Hide Tool Bar?

Is there a way to hide the toolbar? I know we can have it up or to the left side but is there a way to hide it to actually clear space for reading?
When you put it to the left, it kind of resembles the resource collapsible pane Accordance has which I always have to hide because it actually takes up space instead of freeing up space.

Can you guys plan for a future update to include a collapsible toolbar? It’s been done for the home page to start with a blank set up.  I’m sure it can be done for the tool bar also.

Thanks!

    OK, I just have to ask.  Are you already collapsing the bar (left-side), so only icons show?

    I agree the Accordance bar is a bit flakey.

    No, but you can make it skinny (arrow at the bottom). That's the way I use it, it's the closest thing to a totally hidden toolbar so far.

    Maybe something like auto-hide and then re-appear with mouse over?

    As the others have said, this is already possible. There is the "wide" left panel and the "skinny" left panel. New users may like the wide panel since it tells you what the icons are... I have it collapsed at all times.

    I had suggested this and it was a clear "not now" from FL. I hope it becomes an option too.

    Yes! Kind of like the Instant Details in Accordance! Hide, but a simple mouse over can bring it back up and with a click make it stay or not 👍

    No, but it’d be nice to just be able to collapse and uncollapse like a yoyo 🪀 You want to see it click and it un-scrolls down for you.  You want to hide it then it scrolls up and hides. 😁

    This implementation would be immensely useful for preserving screen real estate while still providing the functionality needed.

    Got it! Like a Mac Menu! Better to hide it, but this should work for now.

    I watched the MPSeminars tutorial on L10 and saw that his toolbar was completely hidden.  I'll reach out to him and ask!
