(Get the code!)
Careful here, investigate possible cross-platform issues first.
macOS:
Other than the bug description, there is no menu bar visible in full-screen mode.
It becomes visible by hovering on the very top top of the application window.
The OS forces a menu-bar on all apps in non-fullscreen mode,
it holds system relevant menu items ( System preferences, App store, user switching, ….).
Moreover it holds a searchable help system.
Sphinks, our document generator, has a builder available to integrate multilingual Apple Help books.
If done right, the Mixxx manual is searchable from the menu bar.
Why not make the menu bar useful on all OS, and the behavior predictable ( e.g. hiding in full-screen)?
