Maybe having your primary menu bar disappear and be replaced by the second one is annoying and youвЂ™d rather see both at the same time. If you try the hover method and find that Bartender gets triggered through accidental movement up there too often for your tastes, you can add a specific time delay before activating so itвЂ™s not flipping to the second menu bar except when you hover with intention. You can set Bartender to allow you to simply hover your mouse in the empty area to activate the second menu bar. Maybe clicking is too much work for you to do.

ItвЂ™s so much easier now to activate that second menu bar. Bartender 4 General TabДЄssuming that youвЂ™ve put some items on a second menu bar using Bartender 4, you can click in the empty space of your menu bar and the second menu bar will appear. Ben calls that second menu bar the Bartender Bar, but I always think of it as the second menu bar. In Bartender 4, you have new ways to show the second bar, and you get to control how this happens. Showing and Hiding Second Menu BarДЄs I mentioned, the purpose of Bartender is to manage your menu bar items by hiding the ones you never want to see, and putting the ones you sometimes need to see on a second menu bar. I actually paid the full $15 because it is such a mission-critical app for me and I hadnвЂ™t paid the developer, Ben Surtees, in years, and I wanted to support such an awesome app. Once it is released, it costs a grand total of $15, and if you have a previous version you can get it on upgrade pricing for $7.50. Bartender 4 is in public beta right now, which means itвЂ™s free to download and use to give feedback to the developer until it is officially released.

If you want to learn how to use Bartender 4, of course I highly recommend signing up for ScreenCastsOnline, but I did want to tell you about Bartender 4 here to get you excited. I recently created a tutorial on ScreenCastsOnline about Bartender 4 using my backup Mac which is already on Big Sur, and I really missed Bartender 4 when I went back to Catalina on the production machine. IвЂ™m just fixing to make a plan to nuke and pave my production machine so I can go to Big Sur and I have to say Bartender 4 is a big reason on why IвЂ™m excited to do it. When I say вЂњfor Big SurвЂќ I really mean that it only runs on Big Sur, not on Catalina or earlier.
