This actually is the thing keeping me from using Unity right now. A permanent menu bar made since on a 4:3 screen. But in 16:9, I just don't want to lose my precious vertical screen real estate to a menu bar.
- mindstab 13y agoyou can remove it already, and it's about the first thing I don on all my new computers: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7282659 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7282659
- mistercow 13y agoThat doesn't solve the real estate problem - in fact it makes it worse in some apps. The top bar is still there after you do that. It just moves the menu items back into the window. I don't really care where the menu items are. If the top bar would auto-hide, I'd be fine with it. I just don't want to give up the space. Apparently there's a modified Unity called "Unity Revamped" which adds autohide as an option to CCSM, but it's a slightly older version of Unity, and for whatever reason I can't downgrade to it.
- reirob 13y agoAbsolutely agree! I would like to know how to get rid of the horizontal bar all-together.
- sampo 13y agoBut since the windows won't have menu bars, won't that balance your loss of vertical screen real estate? Or if you have 2 or more windows vertically above each other, you even gain some vertical screen real estate.
