Re: Application menus

What is about multi-monitor-setups?
If an application with an Application-Menu is moved to a
non-primary-screen, the Application-Menu is only accessible on the
primary-screen. This requires a user to move the visual focus from the
non-primary-screen to the primary-screen. Examples which make this issue
clearly are Empathy or the Gnome-Calculator.

The only feasible solution I can imagine is to show the black-bar a top
also on the non-primary-screen, without the date/time, notifications and
user-menu.
Pro: Obvious solution and simple to use, every user will grasp it
Con: Some lost pixels at top, Settings-Displays will need to show more
clearly what the primary-screen is (currently often missed, only the tiny
black-bar indicates this)

Or did I miss the obvious solution?


Yes.  Obvious for me solution is to consider the current situation as
a bug and an existence of menu & Co on the secondary (or nth-ary)
screen as a fix.
