301522 - Mac OS-Style menu bars in KDE are ignored in Linux

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Firefox :: Menus, defect)

Description

[Ryan]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050720 Fedora/1.0.6-1.1.fc4 Firefox/1.0.6
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.7.10) Gecko/20050720 Fedora/1.0.6-1.1.fc4 Firefox/1.0.6

While using KDE, I choose to use the Mac OS style of menu bars (where the menus
for the current application are always on the top on the screen). Then, when I
open firefox, the Firefox menus are show propely, but the menus on the top of
the screen are for the Desktop. I beleive the menus are supposed to be shown on
the top of the screen only.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start KDE
2. Right-click Desktop & Choose Configure Desktop
3. Click Behavior -> Current application's menu bar (Mac OS-style)
4. Click OK
5. Open firefox
Actual Results:  
The desktop menu bar was shown at the top of the screen and firefox's was shown
within firefox.

Expected Results:  
The firefox menu bar should have been at the top of the screen above the firefox
window.

I'm using Fedora Core 4 with Firefox 1.0.6 running on the x86-64 architecture.

see bug 273818

We're using the GTK theme, not KDE.

The setting you describe applies to KDE applications only, and Firefox is not a
KDE application. You will find that other programs like Gimp etc. behave in the
same way as Firefox.

-> INVALID
