Xmind has no menu in natty 11.04 Unity

[thetechnaddict]

The application Xmind has no menu when running in Unity - (at least in 64 bit)

One day I hope this will play nicely with the global menu -

Meanwhile here's a work-around -

from the terminal type:

gksudo gedit /usr/share/applications/xmind.desktop

In the editor add "env Ubuntu_MENUPROXY=0" to the Exec section - the whole line should look like this:

Exec=env UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0 /usr/local/xmind/xmind

Now Xmind will not use the Unity's global menu, but you will see a menu!

please note: use capitals - so UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0 and not Ubuntu... etc.

Thanks! that worked for me, however I needed a reboot to see the changes

Great, that works well w/o reboot.
