[Bug 1302084] Re: Menu in title bar is missing after a modal window child

 

So, I had a look at the bug briefly. I can reproduce it easily - some first hand observations: 
- this only happens with the menus are in the window title-bar - everything works correctly with the global menu
- once the modal window is opened and then closed, HUD works normally
- when using HUD in the broken state to open up any modal window (like the about one that caused the failure), the menu appears on the modal window instead

Some first thoughts based on those observations: first of all, I'm not
sure if it's really a problem in appmenu-qt5. Since it seems that
appmenu exports the menu correctly through DBus, making it accessible by
unity7 and hud. The problem seems to be with parent identification. The
application is still the parent of the menu, but not the correct window.
I will check if all is correct from our appmenu's perspective.
