I have run a debugging session from the Eclipse side. When you click the global menu it is producing event that gets handed down to the main SWT loop, there Eclipse takes the event and gives it back to GTK calling gtk_main_do_event for precise targeting of the affected component. Without the global menu the event would popout back from GTK inside the Menu widget triggering something like menuIsAboutToShow callback. With global menu however the event is swallowed and never comes back.
The Java code in Eclipse has no role here nor the super-thin SWT native code. It an apparent regression in the behavior of the GTK library. In other words it is Ubuntu global menu back not being compatible with standard GTK behavior. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1208019 Title: Eclipse menus doesn't show up in Saucy To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/unity-gtk-module/+bug/1208019/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
