Open aminwhat opened this issue 4 months ago • 3 comments

Hi there

I was working with the simple editor example and saw the menu bar on the top kinda didn't like it on mac ;) so i've added the macos native menu bar, on window still uses the previous menu bar(it least it should) but on mac it uses the macos native menu bar at the top

macos-native-menubar

i didn't know if it is wanted it or not, so i've created the pull request

My view on this is that people that use macOS want consistency with their OS, and people that don't use macOS want consistency across different OSes.

This is kind of a mentality split. macOS has good support for menu bars and people used to it hate apps that reimplement it. Other systems don't, so it doesn't seem important to their users. There's also the fact that people on macOS tend to stay on macOS, while people on Windows/Linux tend to switch between the two.

I'm very for having a macOS native menu bar. I like when my software feels integrated into the OS I'm using! If you use macOS you expect to have a native menu bar, I think it's more confusing for users that expect that to find it integrated into the window.
