Hi, I wrote an extension that does this "Remove Panel App Menu" as I find the AppMenu counter-productive, confusing (why have menus in two different places?) and it breaks the sloppy mouse focus (you can't access the AppMenu since it changes when the mouse goes over another window when you try and access it).
Unfortunately I don't have Gnome Shell 3.6 yet and from what the users say the extension doesn't work on 3.6/3.7. I will try to upgrade my Ubuntu next week and see if I can fix this issue. In any event, just keep on looking on the extension's page and I will announce when it is fixed, hopefully soon.

I feel a bit confused because I don't know where to search an option: every time I check the "engine wheel" that is near the mouse then I remember the AppMenu!!! I think that AppMenu is not a graet design for the following reason: * it is far from the window content, the mouse pointer have to cover a longer distance * it's slow because you need to click before see the menu list * if like for Files, you need another place to put other actions (the engine wheel), well it's even confusing!!! Please remove AppMenu! Last thought: I like the Unity idea to place the window menu in the top bar when the mouse hover on it, but I would prefer if it works in such manner only for the maximized windows. -- Ciao Donato [http://www.linkedin.com/img/webpromo/btn_viewmy_160x33.png]<http://it.linkedin.com/in/donatomarrazzo> ________________________________ This email and any attachments are confidential and access to this email or attachment by anyone other than the addressee is unauthorised.
