It only happens in Ambiance/Radiance.

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

I suspect this regression might have been intentional, to account for a Compiz/Unity regression that happened around 2013-14 some time; menu shadows drawn over Unity panel.

But removing the shadow completely is too heavy-handed, and not the right way to approach the problem. Just fixing the original regression would be preferable.

Logged the other issue as bug 1431707.

[Olga Kemmet (olga-kemmet)]

I don't think this is a UX issue.

[Stephen M. Webb (bregma)]

I hardly think this has anything to do with Unity 8, it's an artifact of the new GTK+ extents handling and requires changes in Compiz to support that under Unity 7.
