Configuring a Panel

[biomedtek]

When a panel is set to autohide, a small portion of it is still visible at the edge of the screen. Is there a way to configure how much of the panel remains visible? I would like to have a very narrow portion showing, or perhaps none at all.

This value can be changed. Press Alt-f2 to get "Run Apllication" and type in gconf-editor followed by OK. Work your way down to apps/panels/toplevels there you will see the 2 panels there. Select the panel you want and change the value of auto_hide_size from 6 to 0. The panel will now not show.
