I currently have my Mac set to automatically show/hide the dock, since 
that frees up a few centimeters of screen space for other tasks.

Problem is, there's a handful of applications which I use which involve 
a horizontal scroll bar. Unfortunately, when I try to drag the 
horizontal scroll bar in these apps, half the time the dock reappears 
and I end up inadvertently rearranging items on the dock rather than 
scrolling as intended. [My dock is on the bottom of the screen].

Is there a global setting that can be invoked which delays the dock from 
showing up for a second or two when the mouse hits the bottom of the screen?

[n.b. I am still using Monterey, but I assume any such setting would 
probably be available on all Macs].

André
