The loss of the keyboard short-cut hints to the right (left for bidi languages) of gvim menus occurs when it is using the Unity global menus.
When starting gvim such that it uses its own window menus the short-cut hints are present. Starting gvim using Alt+F2 then "gvim", or from a terminal: UBUNTU_MENUPROXY="" gvim (this simply clears the setting of the UBUNTU_MENUPROXY variable which is usually "libappmenu.so") will both launch gvim without using Unity global menus. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1007075 Title: Menu key shortcuts gone in GVim To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/vim/+bug/1007075/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
