I have the same problem. I cannot use the global menus because I setup my X environment to focus the window my mouse goes over. That really does not work with global menus since I lose those menus as soon as I move the mouse over another window (although Atl-F10 can help, it's not easy to type that one!)
So... the gnome-calculator is reduced to a totally unusable simplistic calculator! And there are no command line options from what I can see that would allow me to change the settings. However, as a temporary solution, if we could change the current settings and get a better rendering, it would be great. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-calculator in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1230172 Title: gnome-calculator menu unreachable when "global menu" is off Status in “gnome-calculator” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The "Ubuntu's new Enhanced Menu project"[1] aims to add the option of choosing whether you want the "Global menu" or not. Due to a faulty upgrade, my Ubuntu 13.04 desktop turned out to be missing the indicator-appmenu (and dependencies). And without those, there was no global menu. That wasn't a problem for me, until I found out that I couldn't put the gnome-calculator back into PROGRAMMING mode because it had no menu to do so [2]. I tried to hack around a bit in the code, but I didn't get very far. See patch attempt in [2]. Kind regards, Walter Doekes OSSO B.V.
