Hi David H, i don't think that's possible. I use that plugin in compiz than you refer, but that plugin only affects to the title bar info, and the problem is with the menu bar. The title bar and the menu bar are diferent modules as I understand it (not a programer neither) and so are controlled by diferent processes. For instance, your title bar can be controled by gtk-window-decorator or by emerald, while the menubar is controled by the gtk directly, if I'm not wrong...
Anyway, i read some people says the lack of global menu in root windows is not a bug, its made on purpose, because they considered than having a menu with root privileges outside the window than owns it was dangerous. You may be doing some mistake in a root menu thinking you are manipulating another user window's menu. But I used the globalmenu plugin in maverick, which worked in all windows and never had a problem. Let's see if somebody makes a workarround to make it works system-wide. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/592842 Title: appmenu doesn't work with apps run as sudo root -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
