a) Not only would you lose you window manager controls, replaced by some GNOME-specific kludge, but you'd also _lose_ screen real estate. Geany's menu and toolbar fit within the same area as the giant header bar but expose all the functionality directly instead of hiding it behind some trendy hamburger or gear icon.
b) You mean modern _GNOME_ app. Just because GNOME developers are actively ruining GTK+'s cross-desktop experience, doesn't mean we can't still try to use it to make a portable application that looks normal on good desktop/platforms (ex. XFCE, KDE, Windows, etc.) Speaking for myself, GtkHeaderBar is the worst thing to happen to desktop Linux since GNOME-shell. It serves no purpose other than to break cross-desktop compatibility and windows management, all just to look like a phone app on the desktop. In case it wasn't obvious, 👎 for me :) -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
