Default Slide Out Menu.

I seem to remember many Moons ago that Timetraveller had a fix for the Slide Out Menu on the left-hand side of the screen.
I want to move it so that it stays hidden and only comes out when I place my cursor over it.
The link in the Community Manual is broken!
Does anybody know how to do this?
Thanks a lot if you can help.
KUrtz

Hiding the Left-Hand Menu
This Do-It-Yourself mini-mod further hides the vertical menu that resides on the left side of the screen during gameplay. This reduces clutter on the screen and frees up more space for viewing the game action. And, when needed, the menu will reappear when the mouse is moved to the left side of the screen.
Find the file SilentHunterIII\data\menu\menu_1024_768.ini. You can open this file with any word processor (such as Notepad or WordPad).
Find the section labelled "[G3F I21]". The original file looks like this:
[G3F I21]
Name=Group shortcuts
Type=1026;Menu group
ItemID=0x3F020000
ParentID=0x3F000000
Pos=-1,761,56,474
Color=0xFFFFFFFF
HorizSlide=-30
Change the value for Pos to -1,761,56,474 and the value for HorizSlide to -56.
It should look like this afterwards:
[G3F I21]
Name=Group shortcuts
Type=1026;Menu group
ItemID=0x3F020000
ParentID=0x3F000000
Pos=1,761,56,474;-1,761,56,474
Color=0xFFFFFFFF
HorizSlide=-56;-30
Note that you should keep the old values in the file, after a ; (semi-colon). The game will ignore anything after the semi-colon, but the old values will be available to you if you ever decide to change back to the original configuration.

Hi KLARCH,
Thanks for the reply.
A link to my FileFront page is below.
I recommend U-BootReflextionen which is a great enhancement to the appearance of the U-Boots!
