Temporarily, I'm using pluma instead of gedit as a work-around for the menu-not-displaying-in-title-bar-issue: sudo apt-get install pluma
Pluma seems to be some previous fork of gedit, and looks like gedit did about two versions ago. Here's a screen shot of pluma, where you can see the correct behavior regarding the title-bar-menu: http://neartalk.com/ss/pluma.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1527590 Title: gedit unusable when menu can't be displayed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gedit/+bug/1527590/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
