"Apple sells iMacs with screen sizes 1920x1080 and 2560x1440, and the Thunderbolt display at 2560x1440. It is not the case that a global menu bar is not ergonomic on large screens." So global menus are ergonomical because Apple thinks so? Because Apple does things this way it doesn't mean that there isn't a problem with it.
I would love an Unity AppMenu (let's hope for a Compiz plugin!), but Manny's last proposition really is the most reasonable one for this cycle, and it could increase menu discoverability and its persistence. I think this discussion gave us good solutions for two major problems with the global menu: 1- An option to turn global menus on/off for non-maximized windows/always off; 2- A fourth window button to turn menu persistence on/off, which could work both for maximized and non-maximized windows. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/682788 Title: Global menu is not ergonomical on large screens To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/682788/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
