Bug Description
Description: In 12.04 Application menus in Unity 2d do not show the full length, but are shorter than normal and show small 'triangles' top and bottom. Tested on a large monitor (1920 by 1080). Clicking on these triangles allows you to scroll down or up to see all the options available in the menu. Unity shows the full menu length. In 11.10 full length of pull down menus shown in both Unity and Unity 2d sessions. Does not affect LibreOffice. First seen in and reported now from a 12.04 alpha1 install which had been updated. Confirmed by another user, and reproduced in a live session from daily build cd.
Steps to reproduce (Jan 10th i386 daily build ISO): boot into live session on PC with blacklisted graphics card, Unity2d session starts, load Firefox, click on a menu. Scrollbars apparent. Boot from same iso on a laptop with supported graphics card, Unity session starts, load Firefox, click on menu, full length of menu apparent.
Discussion: and confirmation from another user: http://
Screenshot: see attachment
Lack of consistency between Unity and Unity 2d is bad, and I find the scrolling menus harder to navigate, hence filing as a bug.
