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

 

** Description changed:

+ [ Impact ]
  
- 1) In System Settings/Appearance/Behavior ( see section 2.2 of http://tinyurl.com/7c7nofq ), the "Application Menu" options should be "Integrated in menu bar and hidden" (default) and "Integrated in menu bar and visible"
+ [Test Case]
  
- 2) If "Integrated in menu bar and visible" is selected, the menus should
- always be shown, in exactly the same manner they are currently displayed
- when the pointer is moved over the menu bar.
+ (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.
