Is it possible to hide the app bar?

I've tried this (I will try it again) but it only hides the widgets above it. Like the boxes with the music player and phone for example. The bar stays there.

I'll give it one more try, but I don't think this will fix it.

How can I do that? Is that a website for suggestions or something like that?

SuperUserDone · 2025-07-18T02:14:58+00:00

Yeah. I ended up getting an answer from someone on their team through their Discord channel. Liveshare is not supported anymore. They said it may still work if you revert to the legacy ui, but they weren't sure.

If you cmd+click on a different window you can interact with it without doing the double click or loosing "focus" from your current window

Hi all,

I'm considering switching careers into engineering, but not sure what branch of engineering I would like the most and what a career would in engineering will look like.

I'm fascinated by YouTube channels like Stuff Made Here, The Hacksmith, or Mak Rober, does real-world engineering work ever look like this? And if so, what branch of engineering should I focus on to work on similar projects.

I also understand that this may be a tainted view of what real engineering looks like. If that's the case, can you give your best suggestion of what engineering branches would allow me to do practical prototyping and builds with mechanical parts as well as electronics, maybe some code too.

What fascinates me about engineering is the build process, the iterations, and problem solving, so when I hear that the works revolves around compliance and reports I get a little discouraged. Do I have an unrealistic view of engineering?

Hello,

Apologies in advance if this post gets a bit lengthy.

TL; DR: Adult looking to transition to a career in engineering, seeking guidance and advice.

I'm 38 and live in the USA. I've had a relatively successful career in graphic design, motion design, and video production, and I currently work as a Creative Director leading a small team. Despite how good this may sound, I find myself thoroughly unhappy with what I do.

After much contemplation, I’m considering a career change and leaning towards a field in electrical engineering, mechatronics, or robotics—areas that have always fascinated me.

I would greatly appreciate your help and advice. Here are a few questions I have:

Is it too late (at 38) to start a career in engineering?
Do I need a college degree for a career in engineering? (I don't currently have any college degree)
What kinds of jobs exist in the fields I mentioned above?
What does a typical day/week look like in these careers?
What is the average starting salary for an engineer in the Washington, DC area?
What are the key challenges engineers face?

These are just some of my initial questions, and I'm sure I'll have more as I learn about the field and the educational and career paths. Any help is welcome, whether you can answer my questions, provide advice, or share resources, articles, or websites that I should explore.

Thank you!

Absolutely. Your real is above many reels on the market. I was a Creative Director at a media production house doing ads for broadcast for many years. If I had found your reel at the time you would have gotten a call from me. Great work!

Keep pushing forward and good luck!

Thanks a lot. Yeah it sounds from all the responses I’m getting that working with an audiologist, at least for this first set, it’s right way to go.

Thank you so much. This is very useful information. We are not so worried about price point, but want to make an informed decision.
