In recent gladish, the open dialog is ALWAYS empty! It stays like this, no matter how often you select Studio->Open.
Thie makes gladish unusable, since you cannot load a studio at all!

summary: - File - Open shows recent configurations only after the second "open"
- attempet
+ File->Open is empty

It's a problem of unity menu integration:
Setting UBUNTU_MENUPROXY=0 makes it work.

summary: - File->Open is empty

Thank you for your bug report. That ticket is quite old and we didn't get recent report of the problem, also it seems to work correctly now, closing. Feel free to reopen if you can still reproduce in more recent versions

My recent comments (comment:2--comment:4) refer to Ubuntu 15.04 (vivid).
The problem could formerly be worked around by selecting the menu entry twice. This does not work any longer. This seems to be related Unity's "menu-in-the-titlebar" feature. The problem can now be worked around by disabling this feature for gladish, see comment:4.

However, gladish's Open and Delete menus are still broken in the current Ubuntu version.
i attach two screenshots, with and without the workaround in comment:4.

I cannot tell if the problem is located in package "Unity"/"unity (Ubuntu)" or package "ladish". Please check again. Thank you.

Screenshot of gladish in current Ubuntu vivid. Note one-pixel line that appears instead of proper menu entries.
