I have found that sometimes icons in the sidebar are mysteriously coalesced. For instance, I've had Chrome and gedit merge into a single icon, and clicking it would bring up the windows for both. However, this happens too seldom to be reproducible, and I am not sure it has happened in 12.04 yet, so I have no idea if it has been fixed yet.
But that is fairly offtopic for this bug. For this, I agree: Hiding the menu is TERRIBLE for usability. Please don't fall into the trap of trying to reduce "clutter" by sacrificing usability. "Clutter" is NOT always a problem that needs to be fixed. Sometimes you really do need it. There is a reason the menu bar is always visible on Mac OS X. Apple does put a lot of effort into usability. Hiding it destroys most of the benefits of a global menu bar, rendering it mostly useless. The fact that you can no longer aim at the entry you need is a serious problem with this design. -- 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: Improve Unity menus 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
