Some applications don't export their menus first when the app is launched.

I've noticed that some applications don't export their menus first when the app is launched, but it works when I minimize the app and maximize it again or click anywhere in desktop. Overall it's require a refresh to export the menus. Here I am mentioning only those applications in which i'm facing this issue.

• Visual Studio Code
• Google Chrome
• Slack Desktop
• Brave Web Browser
• Postman(Some times)
• Telegram(Some times)

OS :- Ubuntu 20.04

For reference adding some snapshots:-

I’m gonna add a retry delayed since some apps seem to take a while to export the menu.

I added 2 retries with a 2 second wait each on b920ef4. It should be enough for every computer (I hope).

Hey! @gonzaarcr now it's working fine for me. Thanks

Hey! @gonzaarcr where i can message you personally, actually i love this extension and want to communicate more regarding this but there are no direct message option available in github.
Well, look at this link can it help to make firefox working with global menu.

Yeah, I haven’t dig into it, but Ubuntu 16 is still supported, and that one has an official patch (from Canonical) with a global menu, but is gonna be unsupported on a few month.

The link that you provided seems to be from the version 64, and we are on 84, I wouldn’t recommend to use an unsupported version.

I should check what ppa Ubuntu Unity uses, but according to this post the updates are done manually (also wouldn’t recommend).

Thanks for your response man :)

I would like to add to this issue that all of those apps use chromium.
