Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 41244
Ability to View Actual Menu Bar in Full Screen Mode
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:34:30 UTC
When in full screen mode the user can not see the menu bar. While they can access the menu drop downs by pressing the Alt key, and using the arrows for navigation, or the key combination for a specific menu (e.g. Alt-v drops the View menu down) the menu bar itself is not visible. A better UI could be to have the *ability* to show the menu bar (e.g. some where there would be an option 'Show Menu Bar in Full Screen Mode'). Any visible tool bars would be then below the menu bar. Another way would be for the menu bar to appear when the mouse pointer is at the very top of the screen. In fact the options for this might be a tick box to indicate you want to indeed show the menu bar (a tick box) and then enable a radio button selection of if it is to be permanently visible, or only appear when the mouse is at the top of the screen.
