Description Amit Shah 2005-01-11 10:18:29 UTC
Version:           1.4.1 (using KDE 3.3.1,  (3.1))
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-3)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.10-mm1

The options only available on the menu bar (especially monitor for activity/silence) can be added to the right-click shortcut when not showing the menu bar.

Currently, the only way to access them is to display the menu bar and then select the option.

It's also available in the context menu of the tabs.

I have scrollbars, menus, tabs, etc, all hidden.

Please reopen this bug.

And you don't feel guilty when disabling all GUI elements that you're not able to have all functionality available in the GUI anymore? ;-)

Oh well, after disabling all that, 'show menubar', 'settings', etc, come on 
the RMB... so why not have other things we miss as well ;-)

Amit.

Ok, should we rename this bug to "Add the entire menu bar to the context menu when the menu bar is hidden"?

No, of course not. What is useful for you is not useful for everyone.
Comment 6 Kurt Hindenburg 2005-01-12 06:17:31 UTC
The only addition to the context menu when the menubar is hiden is 'Show menubar'.
There's a reason for the menubar...

Wrong. 'Settings' is enabled in the context menu only when the menubar is 
hidden.

Comment 8 Kurt Hindenburg 2005-01-12 09:27:32 UTC
My mistake.  So you want Edit and View menus in the context menu when the menubar is hidden?  
Personally, I don't think Settings should be in the context menu.
Maybe Bookmarks... maybe New Sessions...

No harm done ;-)

I don't need the Edit menu (not yet), but the 'monitor for xxx' options in the 
view menu..

Then assign a keyboard shortcut to it.
Comment 11 Kurt Hindenburg 2005-03-14 05:24:43 UTC
I personally think there is too much stuff in the RMB when the menubar is hidden.
Anyway I agree with #10, use a shortcut.
