[Bug 1306608] [NEW] Unity global menu "delays" actions in a gtk2 app

 

Public bug reported:

There is a problem with this global menu from Unity, it delays
actions/things i do in the menu. It seems that the information from menu
is not send to the app.

Using vba-m gtk, i can not load saved games until I move the emulator
window. Take a look at the video.

Step to reproduce:

- Opens the vba-m emulator
- Load a ROM
- Save State in some time
- Try to Load State (Emulation > Load State > Most Recent), you will notice that it will not work
- Move the emulator window to other place, you will that after you drop the window, the emulator will load the saved state

Or:
- Opens the vba-m emulator
- Load a ROM
- Save State in some time
- Try to Load State, you will notice that it will not work
- Click in global menu, the menu drops down, and click again to close it, the emulator will load the saved state after this action

If i disable the global menu, to use the old gtk2 menu, it works fine
(env UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0 gvbam).

This emulator works fine in others desktops, like xfce, mate and kde.
