Pro Automation

Reveal icons when needed, then hide them on your schedule.

Auto-Hide and Hover Reveal are Tuck Pro controls. Configure them after Push Mode or Shelf Mode works reliably.

Turn on Auto-Hide

  1. Open Tuck Settings.
  2. Open the Menu Bar tab.
  3. Enable Auto-Hide.
  4. Choose a delay from 1 to 30 seconds.

After icons are revealed, Tuck waits for the selected delay before hiding the managed group again.

Auto-Hide returns the managed group to its tucked state after the configured delay.

Stable Tuck 1.0.38 keeps revealed third-party menu bar items visible while their menu is open. The full Auto-Hide delay starts after the menu closes.

Turn on Hover Reveal

  1. Enable Show on Hover in the Menu Bar settings.
  2. Choose a hover delay from 0.1 to 1.0 seconds.
  3. Move the pointer over the Tuck area and wait for the selected delay.

Choose comfortable delays

Start with a longer Auto-Hide delay and a medium Hover delay. Short values can feel like flicker while you are learning where the reveal area begins.

If automation does not run

Confirm that Tuck Pro is active in the License tab. The settings can remain stored, but the effective Auto-Hide and Hover behavior is disabled while Pro access is unavailable.
