Bug ID: 412548 Summary: Gui to whitelist/blacklist applications for global menu export (workaround for broken applications) Product: kded-appmenu Version: 5.16.4 Platform: Kubuntu Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: major Priority: NOR Component: export Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org Reporter: leftcr...@tutanota.com Target Milestone: --- Some applications are broken with global menu. Examples: - Libreoffice with GTK3 theme doubles the menuitems. - Unity3D https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/dcniuz/disable_global_menu_for_unity3d/ - Emacs needs to be explictly whitelisted to display the global menu. This breakage, while infrequent, can be very serious and I don't see it getting fixed in a timely manner upstream (it's out of KDE's control), unfortunately. KDE should not attempt to fix the problematic apps by putting in overrides. If the app is broken with global menu by default, then it should be remain broken until it's actually fixed. However, the user should be able to quickly fix stuff on their own end by whitelisting or blacklisting apps. Nobody knows how to whitelist emacs for example, thus users can't access the global menu. Nobody knows where to get the experimental QT vcl to make the LOffice menubar work. Unity3D is supposedly just plain broken. So it would be nice to have a troubleshooting pane, perhaps with some presets that can be enabled or disabled. It would be nice if these overrides would propagate to latte dock and and the future HUD as well. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
