Autohide folder tree by mouse

Tools
7

Edit - Fixed size issues & added delay to the folder tree itself.
Edit - Updated to block being triggered if outside the unmaximized window
This AutoHotkey script I'm working on works for the folder tree + viewer, it will work on all Windows versions that AutoHotkey will run on. :slight_smile:
To use it, just download AutoHotkey at autohotkey.com/
Make a new text file.
Paste the code and save and close it.
Change the extension from .txt to .ahk

  1. Auto show the tree then close once you move outside of it.
  2. Show the viewer if your mouse is in the area for 500MS but it will not close until you move your mouse out of the area and back another 500ms.
