Add support for a top bar even with navigation turned off #91

Open nullbasis opened 3 years ago

nullbasis commented 3 years ago

Full disclosure, I'm on Ubuntu 20.04, not Linux Mint, so if this is just an issue with installing this program on a system it wasn't meant for, then go ahead and close this as wontfix.

But! Even when I don't need navigation on my webapps, having a top bar to minimize/maximize/close the window is convenient. And while there are other ways to do these things even without the top bar, there isn't a convenient way to move the app around on my window without it. It does seem to be possible if I position my cursor pixel-perfect, but it's very hit and miss.

I have the same issue on Manjaro. Without the navigation there is no easy way to move or close the webapp. I use firefox as the browser

You can fix it by pressing alt, going in View > Tool bar > Personalize tool bar (names might be slightly different since I'm on the italian locale)

Hi Mek101, thank you. This fixed it for me. Although i don't think this should be the way to get this done. It is not really userfriendly, it would be nice if this could be set in the webapp config. A simple "Show topbar" checkbox.

Ah, lol, I see the problem here. I think this is because Firefox is configured not to show a titlebar by default, which is fine since you can grab it via the tab strip. Except here it's hidden :confused:

A temporary fix until this issue is resolved or closed as "upstream issue" is to use Google Chrome as a browser instead of Firefox. Note: This is suggested only from a practicality point of view and to get work done.

os-name: Ubuntu (imported through the Mint repository) os-shell: Unity os-version: 20.04.4 LTS (Focal Fossa) webapp-manager: 1.1.9

Can conform the movement issue in Firefox. Using ALT and/or ALT+SPACE one can get around this, but is very annoying.

Yet, using Chromium yields different problems, for instance not seeing the correct webapp icon on the Unity sidebar (Chromium icon is always shown).

A solution to moving around the webapp using Firefox would be well appreciated!

Well found one more quick-fix.

If you open the "Menu Bar" using the [ALT] key, you can right-click the newly opened top bar, and toggle the "Menu Bar"-option for it to always show. This allows for movement at all times, but leaves the standard Firefox bar at the top of the window.

If you manage to get to the "customize toolbar" screen, you should be able to check the "titlebar" checkbox in order to get the titlebar back.

It worked, looks superb now! Thanks for the tip!
