Description scott 2003-02-09 20:48:43 UTC 
Package: gconf-editor
Severity: minor
Version: 0.4.0
Synopsis: Ignores /desktop/gnome/interface/menubar_detachable setting
Bugzilla-Product: gconf-editor
Bugzilla-Component: general

Description:
The GConf editor ignores the "menubar_detachable" setting when
constructing its menu bar.

This means that the menubar is always non-detachable, whereas this is
configurable in most other GNOME apps

Comment 1 Manuel Clos 2003-08-02 17:31:32 UTC 
This is because the way the menu is created.

It would need to listen to the menubar_detachable key and is not doing so.

Using libgnomeui or libbonoboui will make it work.

This also happens in nautilus.

Is it worth creating a patch to listen to the key? or is it better to
wait for the new menu stuff in libegg?
Comment 2 Anders Carlsson 2003-08-04 06:58:55 UTC 
I'm gonna wait for the new stuff. menubar_detachable isn't visible in
the ui preferences dialog anyway.
Comment 3 Fernando Herrera 2004-01-15 16:57:58 UTC 
Is already this stuff in libegg?
Comment 4 Fernando Herrera 2004-05-28 01:33:16 UTC 
I think new gtk UIManager menus are not detachable... and we now have them. So
closing this. If I am wrong, please, reopen
