This is not expected as the panel is already dragable and double- clickable. WHAT SHOULD HAPPEN: The top panel's empty space should be right-clickable in order to be able to access those options as easily as in windowed mode. Another option, not as good as the first one, would be to add another drop-down menu in the global menu, that would appear only when the window is maximised. The advantage would be the ability to use those actions with the HUD; however, adding a "Window" drop-down menu would interfere with apps that already have one, like LibreOffice Writer, and would probably end up being more confusing. - ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 Package: gnome-panel (not installed) ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-22.34-generic 3.5.7.2 Uname: Linux 3.5.0-22-generic i686 ApportVersion: 2.6.1-0ubuntu9 Architecture: i386 Date: Fri Jan 11 14:22:24 2013 InstallationDate: Installed on 2012-10-21 (81 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.10 "Quantal Quetzal" - Release i386 (20121017.2) MarkForUpload: True ProcEnviron: LANGUAGE=en_AU:en PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_AU.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: gnome-panel UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install)
