I have to say, this is one thing that really annoys me about OS X. A problem I don't think people have mentioned is this:
When you have a maximised window it is unambiguous which window the global menu is associated with, since there is only one showing. However with unmaximised (windowed?) windows, it displays the menu for the *focused* window which may not be the one you are interacting with. If apps have similar menus (File->New Tab for example) it can get pretty confusing! If the global menu is reserved for maximised windows things stay much more unambiguous. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/701294 Title: Always show menu bar for non-maximised windows To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/701294/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
