What happens when a project is loaded? Does the 'build' menu work fine then? Could you start a gnome-shell session and there note if the menu is actually greyed out in that session when no project is loaded.
Menu getting brighter have happened in the past and bug 871327 is quite similar, its just for the dash button. ** Also affects: unity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: unity Status: New => Incomplete ** Changed in: unity (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/898259 Title: Hidden global menu breaks Qt Creator's "build" menu.
