Is it possible to hide the column name/header?

[shirotech]

Hi, thanks for providing this amazing tool, it's really useful.

Was wondering if we can hide the column name? I'm trying to have a minimal view without showing the process list, I managed that with htop -u nobody and tweaked a bunch of options, but only thing remaining is the green bar which shows the column names. Since I am hiding the process list, showing it does not make sense.

Here is what I have so far, goal is to also remove the green bar thing (process header)

The use-case is keeping a simple dashboard within a splitted screen terminal, since there is limited height, would like to keep it short as possible not wasting any height space.

Are you aiming for hiding the entire process list or just hiding the header row of the list? The two goals are different, but your use case seems to suggest a UI for the former, not the latter.

I am trying to hide both, the process list can be hidden with a hack, htop -u nobody but would be good to have a proper way so it doesn't need to do the extra work etc.

The green bar thing (header) remains, can't find a way to do it.

Edit: I have made changes to original post to make it more clear.

No, that's not possible and there is likely little actual incentive to implement this.

Hiding the entire process list includes hiding the header row as well. Please make sure if we get your feature request right. When you said "hiding both" it has been unclear on what you really want.

Okay I hope a PR is welcome? I thought a more modular design would benefit users. i.e. everything is removable. So there's less situation where someone has to decide if something should be there or not. Less burden on the team as well. Just my 2 cents.

No, as you can see that is not the case in the screenshot. I think I was very clear, the current behaviour is you can hide the process list but not the header of it. And so a preferable outcome is to support an option to hide both. I'm really sorry not sure how to make this more clear.

@shirotech Your screenshot showed actual result, but I was asking what result did you expect.
Your feature request looks like #335 .

Okay so I'm confused why this one is wont fix and that one is accepted as a feature request. Like I said just make it modular and there will be less inconsistency. Closing as a duplicate of #335
