You can tweak title-bar actions by using Unity Tweak Tool as following.

open terminal and run sudo apt-get install unity-tweak-toolcommand to install.

Then goto Window Manager > Additional Tab and Set Title-bar Actions.

enter image description here

Set
Double click: Maximize
Right click: Menu


If you choose command-line method then open terminal and type following:

To get current settings for title-bar actions:-

gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences action-double-click-titlebar
gsettings get org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences action-right-click-titlebar

To set new settings title-bar actions:-

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences action-double-click-titlebar 'toggle-maximize'
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences action-right-click-titlebar menu

This worked for me. Hope this helps.
