Re: Menu in window

[Riccardo Mottola]

Hi Gregory,

I think that at the end we probably need native GTK menus like on windows.

However in-window menus are problematic and they should work, sicne ti 
is a theme feature. If you have a menu which opens a modal panel and the 
modal panel gets over the menu the sub-menu displays "above" the panel, 
pretty ugly.

AS far as your issue goes, I'f say it is better not to "not allow the 
window". If you check what GTK does, when you open a menu and 
subsequently try to move the window, you will discover that the first 
click outside the window will close the menu (implicitly not allowing to 
move the window). Subsequent clicks will do what intended.
