Ability to show/hide menu bar

26 votes

On Linux, the menu bar's color sticks out like a sore thumb and takes up valuable screen real estate. Most programs have a show/hide menu button under 'View' - to streamline the program, it would be great if we could hide the toolbar and bring it up by hitting 'Alt'.

Of course the menu bar's colors depend on the selected theme (e.g. dark themes like "Arc" don't have these bright menu bars), BUT being able to hide something that you never use and that takes up screen space is always nice.

Also, it's a widely supported feature nowadays and probably not _that_ hard to implement.

They should apply this change for windows, it is better to have a clean interface with the possibility of expanding options

Please add this option on windows. It is annoying, all the actions can be applied from different places within the ui so very unnessecary.

I can't imagine why this should be a vote feature. It's just too ugly without this being there automatically.

If it stays like this, it's a reason to switch ...
