[Bug 787465] Re: View->Show MenuBar isn't working in 11.04 and later in gnome-terminal

 

Whatever resolution is chosen for this bug, please restore the ability
for more Alt+key combinations to pass through to the terminal's
application.  It is quite frustrating to have Emacs-style Alt+F and
Alt+B -- to pick the two I keep running into -- open the "File" and
"Tabs" menus rather than move my cursor.  (Passing those key
combinations through to the application is the major reason I used the
"hide menu bar" option.)

Title:
  View->Show MenuBar isn't working in 11.04 and later in gnome-terminal

Status in “appmenu-gtk” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “gnome-terminal” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

  If you click on the global menus the View->Show MenuBar and (un)check
  it, it won't work, the menu will stay at the 'global menus panel' or
  whatever it is. In my opinion this option shouldn't exist now,
  considering that global menus are the future, and also considering
  that a global menu has the advantage not to keep its own space on the
  screen  :)

  WORKAROUND:
  1. sudo apt-get purge appmenu-gtk appmenu-gtk3
  2. Logout
  3. Login
