Public bug reported: When using Gnome-Unity:
- in Ubuntu 13.04, setting the environment variable UBUNTU_MENUPROXY to any value used to bring back the menu at the top of the application window. This could be done per application, e.g. $ UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=1 gedit - in Ubuntu 14.04 and 15.04, this environment variable is not effective anymore. As far as I know, there is no way to restore the classical menus for: - non root users, - users who wants to keep this Unity feature for all other applications except desired ones, - applications setting this environment variable in order to ensure their menus are still in the window. As of today, menu-only applications (empty window with menus) are purged from all menus and result in a 2 pixels-wide window. This has been working for decades and this is still correctly supported on all other operating systems and/or window managers. ** Affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1505280 Title: Setting UBUNTU_MENUPROXY is not effective anymore To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1505280/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
