I just installed 'Global Menu'and set it up with the 'Glow'theme. I have a couple of problems though.
1) When using 'Global Menu' I get a separator line between the windecoration and the toolbar, is their a way to remove this? I have looked around inside the gtkrc for the theme but haven't found anything.
2) A icon for the focused program appear before the name and menu, can I remove this icon?
Thanks.
Hi guys,
as shown by the attached video, I added two new features in trunk:
1) Minimized windows are shown in italic
2) When user iconifies / de-iconifies a window will "go to" / "pop up from" the applet position
A brand new menu layout for the application menu is being implemented and will be available with version 0.7.2
Enjoy!

Hey, I would like to say thank you very much to all those that have worked hard on this fantastic applet.
Unfortunately I am having trouble (not with installing or using it) but with trying to install other programs. More specifically I am trying to install the aurora and murrine (svn) engines but they are failing to compile.
The reason for this is that it cant detect gtk2.0, so I tried to install libgtk2.0-dev but I am met with this:
'The following packages have unmet dependencies.
libgtk2.0-dev: Depends: libgtk2.0-0 (= 2.12.9-3ubuntu5) but 2.12.9-4ubuntu3 is to be installed'
I made a thread about this but was told '2.12.9-4ubuntu3' wasnt an official ubuntu package. That is why I am posting here, because I believe it may be related to the global menu applet.
I was hoping someone knows how to tackle this issue as it is preventing me from compiling theme engines.
PS: I believe my mac menu is an older version which is about 1/2 year old (if that has any relevance).
Thank you again.

Hi all,
I am having problems to use the GlobalMenu. I use Ubuntu Intrepid with the latest Mac4lin (gtk for globalmenu). I have added and installed the global menu from the PPA the developers mention in the pages, and i do get the globalmenu option in the add applets to the panel. However, once i enable the globalmenu applet, I only see the name of the application in use with a drop down list of options like the ones when you click in the upper left side of any window (close, maximize, minimize, change to other desktop, etc).
Can anyone tell me or help me, what is missing or what am i doing wrong to get those results?
thanks!!!
Unfortunately, firefox is not a real gtk aapliccation (as openoffice in a different way)
So it won't work with the globalmenu.
You can use firefox extensions such as hidemenu or compact menu
