This general question has been asked numerous times and the answer has
been WONTFIX. The reason is that window titles can often be very long
and not everyone has a large screen like you do. Personally I have a
1280x800 screen but we also want to support 1024x600 screens.

Try uninstalling indicator-appmenu* if you want traditional always
visible menus.
