Yes, I'm using the old bmpanel2, it's working very well here on my PekWM, but I tried to find documentation out there about how to do auto hide on it, but didn't find anything, can someone help me?

I did some searching, and the only documentation I can find makes me believe that autohide is not a config option for bmpanel2. You might look somewhere in ~/.config for where bmpanel2 saves its user config and see if that tells you anything.
Have you looked at fbpanel? It is also lightweight and has an autohide option.

fbpanel is not building here.

I just confirmed, fbpanel and fbpanel-git are both failing to build ... in a very odd way. There's no error - it just abrupty stops on "LIB plugins/user/libuser.so".
But that doesn't seem anymore lightweight than tint2 which is available in the repos.

Sorry about that, I did not look at the comments on the AUR page; you might take a look at them yourself to see if there is a solution there for you.
tint2 is another panel with an autohide option, and it is in the Community repo, so you don't have to build it to try it.
There are other lightweight panels out there. I don't use a panel (or a floating window manager) so that's about all I have for this topic.
(edit) Thanks for checking Trilby.

Yes, I know tint2 but it's not starting here

I installed lxpanel, I'm okay with that.

Please remember to mark your thread [SOLVED] (edit the title of your first post).

It wasn't solved since it's impossible to hide bmpanel2
