app menus missing in 0.12.4 on OSX client

[tlc]

I downloaded and installed 0.12.4 on my OSX client. There used to be a right-hand-side "tray" menu that I don't see anymore. I can find no way to run applications and Winswitch is unusable.

There are now some left-hand side menus ("Servers", "Windows", "Desktops") that I don't recall from before. Maybe they're meant to replace the tray menu?

• Under "Servers", "New Connection" and <myserver> work.
• Under "Windows", "Start Application" doesn't do anything. This is the only item in the "Windows" menu.
• Under "Desktops", "Start Desktop" doesn't do anything. "Main Unix Display on <server>" does bring up a dialog.

It just occurred to me that I upgraded my Ubuntu server at the same time, so I don't know which end is broken!

Sorry. After a reboot "Start Application" and "Start Desktop" DO bring up working dialogs.

• The old menus were nicer. It's not important if they're in the tray. But the multiple selections in the dialog are a pain.
• The "Bookmark" checkbox doesn't seem to do anything.

The tray menu has been removed because it cannot be made to work reliably until an upstream GTK bug is fixed, ​details here - good news is that work is in progress on that.

The left-hand side menus have always been there, you probably never noticed them because you just used the tray.

I'll see what I can do to re-arrange the menus so as to provide more direct dialogs, with fewer options.
The bookmark option does do something, but it's currently just too hard to find, I'll make it a top level entry or menu so it is easier to access.

Thanks a lot for all the feedback.

v0.12.5 released today adds a bookmark menu for easy access.

If and when GTK is fixed (seems stalled), I will restore the tray menu on OSX..

GTK is not getting fixed (the GTK bug entry has not been updated in over a year)
