UPD 1 :
there is a bug
sometimes when you work with smth in tray area ( battery, clock, wi-fi etc) the menu bar stays visible and covers a part of actual opened pogram. And even more, disabling "auto-hide" in settings and re-launching "auto-hide" back does not hellp, the menu bar stays visible anyway

please see the video

hello @dremin thanks for your contribution ! wow that s a huge step forward I believe !
so, Ive tested the feature, it indeed works and fully satisfies the basic need of "uncovering" the full power of vertical space

however, there are still several thnigs might be improved, not much but i find this important

let me indicate the typica scenario usage. you have 3-4 different software opened, or you need to close one and minimize another, or you need to switch tab in browser manually with mouse (not ctrl-tab)
it very often happenes that you point the mouse up with a bit overforce an thus "activating" the menu bar to show , and so you need to wait until the menu bar gets hidden and only after that you can now do the job

I beileve this might be solved with following options

create a 1 sec "treshold" so menu bar not appears instantly on mouse hover, but after a short period of time
an additional option might be added, to adjust the period of time to wait untill the menu bar appears, like from 0.3 sec to 2 sec. so the user can define if he needs non-standart time to wait, or he can go with default one (1 sec)

thanks !

Should be able to hide the menu bar like the task bar. #120
