Bug Description

Binary package hint: tomboy

I am using Tomboy 1.60 from the ubuntu package sources and Ubuntu Natty Beta 2 with Unity.

What I did:

Clicked Tomboy's "File" menu and selected the "Notebooks" entry

What I exspected to happen:

The submenu of the "Notebooks" menu should be shown (check Tomboy_Classic.png attachment)

What happened instead:

The submenu is not shown (check Tomboy_Unity.png attachment), it is not possible to create a new notebook/to create a new note in a specific notebook.

Just in case anyone is stuck for a workaround on this it is possible to create a new notebook by making a new note and clicking the Notebook button in the notes toolbar, this has a New Notebook option.

This seems to be a design decision rather than a bug.

Alemann, what makes you say it seems to be a design decision? If so then it should have been removed from the menu.

It is still failing in Raring alpha.

Oops. I didn't notice that the note-search window (and consequently, the notebook panel) has to be open before the menu is even displayed. Seems like a bug, then.
