Menu for DecoratedWindow

[MFlisar]

The decorated window does not support the default menu - IntelliJ does have something as replacement as you can see in the following screenshots.

Is something like this also possible with this library? I think not... Please let me know if it is possible or consider this as a feature request.

Menu

Clicking the menu icon with the 3 lines opens the menu inside the decorated title bar.

You can put whatever you want in the window decoration, including buttons that have a text label and when clicked open a PopupMenu. We're not planning to implement this further for now, but contributions are welcome as usual

That's what I'm doing right now, it does not look like in IntelliJ, but that would be ok.

But there is a problem with this solution - it behaves a little buggy... PopupMenu does not open immediately if it is placed inside the TitleBar - I always must move the mouse after clicking and only afterwards the popup opens.

Code looks like following:

TitleBar(Modifier.newFullscreenControls()) {
    Row(
        modifier = Modifier.align(Alignment.Start),
        verticalAlignment = Alignment.CenterVertically
    ) {
        Dropdown(
            modifier = Modifier.height(30.dp),
            menuContent = {
                selectableItem(
                    selected = false,
                    onClick = { }
                ) {
                    Text("Sub Menu")
                }
            }
        ) {
            Text("Test Menu")
        }
    }
}

Edit: simplified example

This should work — if mouse events are lost, this might be somewhat related to #368, but right now we don't have bandwidth to look into decorated window as we're focusing on other priorities. The primary maintainer of decorated windows is @devkanro but he's been unresponsive for months... We might have to deprecate the whole API if he doesn't come back to help because he's the only one familiar with it.

FYI, yes, this seems to be the issue... When disabling the modifier here (

jewel/decorated-window/src/main/kotlin/org/jetbrains/jewel/window/TitleBar.Windows.kt

Line 43 in 7aba563

internal fun Modifier.customTitleBarMouseEventHandler(titleBar: CustomTitleBar): Modifier =

) everything works (at least regarding the dropdown menu)...
