[Bug 1036001] Re: GVim tear-off menus don't work

[Paul White]

Marcus,

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better. We are sorry that we do not always have the capacity to
look at all reported bugs in a timely manner. You reported this bug some
time ago and there have been many changes in Ubuntu since that time.
Your problem may have been fixed with some of the updates.

It would help us a lot if you could test on a currently supported Ubuntu
version. When you test it and it is still an issue, kindly upload the
updated logs by running only once in a terminal:

apport-collect 1036001

and add any additional information that you think relevant.
Alternatively, please confirm that this is no longer a problem and that
we can close the report. If we do not hear from you the bug report will
close itself in approximately two months time.

Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu better.

Title:
  GVim tear-off menus don't work

Status in vim package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The GVim text editor, as installed from the software center (I checked
  with Synaptic and its package is vim-gnome 2:7.3.429-2ubuntu2.1) has a
  bug with its tear-off menus (occurs on Xfce and KDE, not sure about
  Unity).

  Steps to reproduce:

  Open Gvim.
  Click on the Edit menu.
  Point to the Color scheme menu item (third from the bottom). A submenu will open.
  Click on the first item of the submenu (the one that looks like “--------------------”). The menu will become a separate window.
  Click on any menu item and notice that the color scheme of the window doesn't change at all. It changes correctly when the menu is used normally (without tearing it off first).

  Distro
  -------
  Description:	Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
  Release:	12.04
  -------
  xubuntu-desktop and kubuntu-desktop installed after the main system installation.
