Oh yes that's true. I made a test. My 11 most used applications which have global menu:
- Nautilus - Firefox - LibreOffice Writer - Pinta Image Editor - Gimp - Terminal - Ubuntu Software Center - FileZilla - Mysql Query Browser - Calculator - VirtualBox OSE has the largest (horizontal) menu bar. Took 50% of the top panel. all the others took much less. Using a screen resolution of: 1440x900. so if someone uses a resolution of 1024xXXX then in this example GIMP would use the whole free menu bar space for itself and there would be no space any more for clicking to focus..... GIMP is a "bad" example for a 1024 screen, but shows well the matter. For myself I always can click on the free space (so no worry)... and often I work with key shortcuts (no worry either)... but there could be cases where you can't click on top panel for window focus. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/782524 Title: Suggestion for a new Unity Menu Concept -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
