@unknown1234_5 @kde If apps won't export the menu via ibus, this will still work as partially as global menu does.

@D_Air1 not all of them, Vivaldi does not. I think it is related to apps wanting to do fancy stuff with the menus, like having custom icons. Of course, both Firefox and Vivaldi have global menu on macosx, which is quite depressing.

@carl @kde It looks like I have to typer ctrl-shift-m in every single app I want the menu back! But at least it is working

@D_Air1 It is not just gtk4 apps, of which I don't use any, but also Firefox and Thunderbird and many others work but have glitches.

@carl @kde No worry, I had already done something similar, however but it does not seem to have worked… I'll try google some more.

@carl @kde Oh LOL, do I need to change all of them manually?

@carl @kde no I'm on a recently updated kde neon. But my config files have been transferred from one install to the other for many years.

What is maybe special, is that I remove two global menu widgets in one go, as I have two screens.

Anyways, sounds like it is time for a big grep exploration!

@mearce You are used to windows being either Maximized or Fullscreen, and these two states being very different things, and changing from one to the other being an hassle, especially exiting from Fullscreen requires touching the keyboard (ESC or f11), or a special button in the interface, hoping the developer made it recognisable. In reality, they are the same thing, with the only difference that Fullscreen hides the menus. If you have the global menu attached to a menu that avoids maximized windows you have unified Fullscreen and Maximized. If on the same panel you also put a widget tonexit from maximized, you also have a universal way to exist from Fullscreen: just take the cursor to the top of the screen and reveal the panel.
