GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 321989
Hidden menubar can't be accessed
Last modified: 2007-08-01 12:21:18 UTC
I'm not sure if it's intentional or not, but the menubar can't be accessed using F10. If this is intentional, epiphany/data/epiphany-lockdown.schemas.in.h:17 should be updated, because right now it says: "Hide the menubar by default. The menubar can still be accessed using F10." msgstr ""
I can reproduce that. I'd guess that that was a problem which was fixed and the string not updated or something. Can't find any information in release notes of fixes to the lockdown code though, so no idea which release this would've occured in. This does work in the way described in the lockdown scheme if the preference is set, epiphany started and then the prefence unset. Either the behaviour needs altering or the string does.
I use that option for minimal layout of epiphany. I love it. So I modify related code line like this: diff -u -r1.345 ephy-window.c --- src/ephy-window.c 2 Mar 2006 21:49:26 -0000 1.345 +++ src/ephy-window.c 30 Mar 2006 17:30:30 -0000 @@ -829,7 +829,7 @@ } /* Don't activate menubar in ppv mode, or in lockdown mode */ - if (priv->ppv_mode || eel_gconf_get_boolean (CONF_LOCKDOWN_HIDE_MENUBAR)) + if (priv->ppv_mode) { return GTK_WIDGET_CLASS (parent_class)->key_press_event (widget, event); }
I think it's intentional, what would be the purpose otherwise? If you want to hide the menubar for space try the hidden menubar extension: http://live.gnome.org/Epiphany/ThirdPartyExtensions Christian can you confirm?
Yes, it's intentional. The schemas string still needs to be fixed though, so not closing the bug.
Fixed in SVN (removed the text).
