[Gambas-user] Menu Show Event with Unity desktop

[Greg Raffaelle]

I set the environment variable APPMENU_DISPLAY_BOTH=1 as suggested and 
the program menu is now displayed on both the global unity menu at the 
top of the screen and on the main form.

However, I still believe the program main class is only receiving show 
menu events from the menu on the main form.  The attached pdf shows two 
screen shots with the program file menu displayed.  The image on the 
left is the file menu displayed from the top menu and the one of the 
right is the file menu displayed from the main form.  In the main class 
I use the file menu _show() event to displayed recently opened file 
names as items 1 through 5 at the bottom of the file menu.  On the left 
image you can see that item 1 is blank but on the right image the file 
name test2.bps appears besides item 1.  I did not perform any other 
program operations between these two screen shots so the file menus 
should have been displayed the same.  Also note the underlining of short 
cut letters (keys) does not show on the file menu in the right image.  
When I set a breakpoint on the show menu event sub in the main class the 
program does not stop when the file menu is selected from the top menu, 
but it does stop when the same menu is selected on the main form.

Any suggestions on getting the two menu to display the same would be 
appreciated.

Thanks,
Greg
