How do I disable app menu in LibreOffice?

How to disable the app menu functionality ("global menu") in LibreOffice, Ubuntu 12.10?


Solution 1:

The gtk-desktop integration activates the unitymenu if unity is available. This can be prevented by uninstalling libreoffice-gtk, which also removes all themeing and results in a very ugly LibreOffice without unity integration.

Solution 2:

Let me quote an answer from How do I enable or disable the global application menu?. This is how you disable the app menu on a per application basis :

To disable appmenu support on a per application basis, set the UBUNTU_MENUPROXY variable to null, with:

env UBUNTU_MENUPROXY= eclipse

the env keyword is useful if your trying to launch the application with the ALT-F2 shortcut.

You'll find more details on https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopExperienceTeam/ApplicationMenu#Troubleshooting.

Solution 3:

As Flimm already stated, removing lo-menubar won't remove LibreOffice's Global Menu.

To remove LibreOffice's Global Menu, you need to remove this package:

sudo apt-get remove indicator-appmenu
