Description AndyKluger 2019-03-27 04:40:43 UTC
Locating an app's menu bar inside a single button in the app's titlebar is a fantastic feature. Unfortunately, enabling this sacrifices the ability to initiate usage from the keyboard.

Whereas with a traditional (in-app) or in-applet appmenu one can use alt+_ keys or the activate applet shortcut to start browsing the menu, it is not possible to open the in-titlebar menu with the keyboard.
