11.10firefoxmenu
In 11.04 and previous editions of Ubuntu, I used the 'Main Menu' tool (under 'System/Preferences') to change individual icons that I did not like in the icon theme I use (Faenza, and mainly the Firefox icon is what I like to change). I now don't have the 'Main Menu' and I can't find it in Synaptic.
Do you know how I can add this back or install it? Is there a new way to do this with 11.10. To me, it seems Ubuntu has gotten harder to set up the way I like with this edition. Thanks for help.
Right Click to the right of the menu and untick Menu Bar.
Now it will have a win7 type menu.
Actually, there is a main menu button on the dock called applications (dark grey lower half) if you right click you will get the typical main menu entries and then the dash format opens. I would be also happy if I could move this "icon" to the top in case I dont remember (happens I am over 50) the name of the app and want to use my graphical memory by switching to classic view (like in windows). Bottom line, the functionality is there, just lets hope a more knowledgeable person will enable us to move this function to the place where we want to see it.
