    • RE: Alt Key Doesn't Open Menu

      @ankonaskiff17 I’m brand new to this so still testing on PC, but will be moving to RPi soon, thanks for letting me know what to expect!

      It bothered me that alt+f4 left a bunch of electron processes open which prevents a new instance launching, and they are a bit stubborn to kill in the task manager.

      I haven’t tested this but I’m thinking a solution might be to just make the app window slightly taller than the screen so that the visible frame is just beyond the display border… feels like a sad workaround but i’m hoping it’ll at least hide the unsightly edge!

      Hopefully the issue gets resolved soon enough.

      As a partial fix for this:

      Add the following to your config.js

      electronOptions:
          {
      		frame: true,
      		autoHideMenuBar: true
          }
      

      However, this has the issue of still showing the outer frame of the window, which obviously isn’t ideal.

      I need to move on from troubleshooting this particular issue so this will have to do for now. Hopefully someone in future can solve it for real.

      Hi,

      I’ve got the same issue (no menu when hitting alt).

      Inspired by @karsten13 's post I tested out changing
      “electronOptionsDefaults.frame = false;” to true in electron.js and this gave me the window toolbar just fine, but it was always on. Trying a few other things still hasnt given me the ‘sometimes on’ functionality.

      I also don’t know if there is another electronOptions I should be changing instead of the defaults inside of electron.js

      Short of writing a new function to set frame to true on a button press (which I’m not even sure would work, because the settings are passed in at window creation), I’m not sure where to go next.

      So I know roughly what to investigate, but I’m still a bit lost. If anyone else has solved this issue or has any suggestions I’d be very grateful!
