kded-appmenu (upstream => KDE 4.10)
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work): Add the source-code for this project on opencode.net
kded-appmenu is a kded module able:
- To display your application menubar at top screen
- To display your application menu using a title bar button (used by kde-workspace patch)
- To enable krunner-appmenu to works using kded-appmenu (as this)
To build it:
$ tar xvzf kded-appmenu-*.*.tar.gz
$ cd kded-appmenu-*.*
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix`
$ make
$ sudo make install
You can activate menubar with:
$ kwriteconfig --group "Menubar style" --key "MenuBarStyle" "TopHorizontal"
You can activate menu export for krunner-appmenu with:
$ kwriteconfig --group "Menubar style" --key "MenuBarStyle" "Others"
To reload kded conf:
$ qdbus org.kde.kded /modules/appmenu org.kde.kded.reconfigure
Just enable kded module at login with:
$ qdbus org.kde.kded /kded org.kde.kded.setModuleAutoloading appmenu 1
Then run kded module:
$ qdbus org.kde.kded /kded org.kde.kded.loadModule appmenu
You can also use systemsettings to configure kded-appmenu but you need to patch kde-workspace with appmenu.diff
If you want menu button in title bar, you also need to patch kde-workspace with appmenu.diff available here:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kd/kdebase-workspace-appmenu/kdebase-workspace-appmenu.tar.gz
To build it:
$ tar xvzf kde-workspace-*.*.tar.gz
$ cd kde-workspace-*.*
$ patch -p1 < appmenu.diff
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix`
$ cd kcontrol/style
$ make
$ sudo make install
$ cd ../../kwin
$ make
$ sudo make install

It appears:

Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?

OK?
Inclusive the instructions for unpacking is written wrong, no?
Thanks.

I wonder if you had considered adding the option to disable the glowbar? It can be distracting when watching a full screen video for example, and also I now know that the menubar is there (TopHorizontal) and I don't need a constant reminder ;)
