I'm splitting out some previously reported issues since they weren't resolved with the fix to the original issue.
There are a couple of quirks with the keybinding for toggling the menu bar that don't match other Windows applications and cause workflow annoyances. These both occur when
window.menuBarVisibility
is set totoggle
.Hold Ctrl, press and release Alt, notice the menu bar is toggled.
Expected: the menu bar is not toggled.
I've tested with various other applications on Windows including Notepad, Paint, and Firefox. None of them do this.
Press and release Alt, press escape, notice the menu bar does not get hidden.
Expected: the menu bar should be hidden.
I tested with Firefox and Visual Studio 2015 (using https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=MatthewJohnsonMSFT.HideMainMenu) and both will hide the menu bar when escape is pressed.
Issue 1 is a daily annoyance for me, as it seems to happen very frequently when I jump between editor groups.
Also, the new custom title bar doesn't have these issues and it feels like the menu bars should be consistent with each other and with the rest of the Windows experience.
