[Bug 955193] Re: Menu bar - add option for the global menu to make it always visible

 

I see this bug "affects" unity-control-center and is triaged.
So @Marco Trevisan and other developers, is an option going to be added to the Appearance settings in Unity Control Center in the next LTS to change the always-show-menus setting?
This would be very nice.

Unrelated to this bug: it would also be nice if an option to change the
launcher_minimize_window setting ("click to minimize" ) was added as
well. Even though it's labelled as "experimental", it seems to be
working pretty well.

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  [Test Case]

  (1) enable menus in the window title bar System Settings > Appearance > Behavior > Show the menus for a window > In the menu bar
  (2) run "gsettings set com.canonical.Unity always-show-menus true" in a terminal
  (3) move the mouse around between windows

  The menus should remain displayed

  [Regression Potential]

  Any change to the menu functionality has the potential to cause
  volunteer functionality in menu behaviour.

  [Other Info]

  The fix for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS was cherry picked from the Ubuntu "Vivid
  Vervet" dev release where it has been in production use for some time
  with no apparent regression.
