boot.loader.grub.timeoutStyle

menu shows the menu.
countdown uses a text-mode countdown.
hidden hides GRUB entirely.

When using a theme, the default value (menu) is appropriate for the graphical countdown.

When attempting to do flicker-free boot, hidden should be used.

See the GRUB documentation section about timeout_style.

If this option is set to ‘countdown’ or ‘hidden’ [...] and ESC or F4 are pressed, or SHIFT is held down during that time, it will display the menu and wait for input.
