Hi,
When i run in the terminal
./run_scaled app_name
the apps menus in the top menu bar are not appearing (like file, edit, etc...), would you know how to fix that?
xpra version: v2.0.2-r15657
Ubuntu 16.04, Unity desktop

I found this:
https://www.xpra.org/trac/ticket/1419
https://www.xpra.org/trac/wiki/FAQ?action=diff&version=74
but not sure if it is relevant and how to incorporate it in your code

Many thanks!

Unfortunatly the fix mentioned there does not work, at least with my Ubuntu I just installed. I opened a bug for it: https://xpra.org/trac/ticket/1512

Ok, thanks for checking out! So you would say it is an Ubuntu bug then?

Probably. run_scaled should use the --start=-flag of xpra instead of starting the applications itself, as mentioned in your linked documentation, but in recent Ubuntu versions stuff breaks anyways.

running
UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0 ./run_scaled app_name
works for most programs, apart from libreoffice.
Output for xournal (for which it works) and impress (for which it doesn't).
xournal.txt
impress.txt

Any ideas?
