This GNOME extension helps to hide GNOME's top bar when it gets into your way.

In the extension's preferences, different behaviors can be specified: unhiding on mouse-over or on pressing a keyboard shortcut, or when no window requires the space.

Unless you are on Debian or Ubuntu (see section below), the recommended way of installing Hide Top Bar is via the official builds on extensions.gnome.org/.../hide-top-bar/.

If you're installing via a Chrome browser, make sure you read the GNOME Shell integration for Chrome Installation Guide.

If you are using a Debian based distribution, the preferred installation method is to use the packaged version. By this, compatibility problems caused by different gnome-shell versions in your distribution can be avoided. You can install the package with:

sudo apt install gnome-shell-extension-autohidetopbar

If you find problems with the Debian packaged version, please file bugs at the Debian Bugtracking system.

If you insist on installing from source, check out the source code into your local extensions directory, compile by running make, install and restart GNOME Shell. For example:

cd ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions/
git clone https://github.com/mlutfy/hidetopbar.git [email protected]
cd [email protected]
make
cd ..
gnome-extensions enable [email protected]
gnome-shell --replace &

The last commandline restarts GNOME Shell.

Whenever you notice that there are localizable strings in Hide Top Bar that are not covered by the strings in ./locale/, you can regenerate the *.pot-file using the following command:

xgettext --output=./locale/hidetopbar.pot --language=JavaScript *.js
