Temporarily, I'm using pluma instead of gedit as a work-around for the menu-not-displaying-in-title-bar-issue: sudo apt-get install pluma
Pluma seems to be some previous fork of gedit, and looks like gedit did about two versions ago. Here's a screen shot of pluma, where you can see the correct behavior regarding the title-bar-menu: http://neartalk.com/ss/pluma.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1527590 Title: gedit unusable when menu can't be displayed Status in gedit package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: There are multiple ways to use gedit where the menu is not being shown, rendering it unusable: 1- use it over ssh 2- do "sudo gedit" 3- Enable rendering window menus in the window titlebar ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: gedit 3.18.2-1ubuntu4 ProcVersionSignature: User Name 4.3.0-2.11-generic 4.3.0 Uname: Linux 4.3.0-2-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.19.3-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Fri Dec 18 07:16:30 2015 InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-10-23 (55 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 15.10 "Wily Werewolf" - Release amd64 (20151021) SourcePackage: gedit UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/1527590/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
