Bug Description

There are some UI problems with yakkety's gnome-calculator. I'm attaching a screenshot taken with yesterday's daily live Ubuntu image.

1. The title bar says 'gnome-calculator' but it should say Calculator
2. The Mode menu has an ugly light-colored border around it instead of being integrated into either the title bar (like gnome-calculator 3.18.3 in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS) or in to Unity's menu bar. This happens when gnome-calculator is run from a terminal instead of from the Unity Dash.

These issues affect both gnome-calculator 1:3.20.1-0ubuntu1 and 1:3.21.90-0ubuntu1 but do not affect 1:3.18.3-0ubuntu1 on yakkety.

I think this was caused by the refresh of debian/patches/git_no_headerbars_in_unity.patch in the 3.20 update.

Screenshots attached.

I have these two problems on two machines as well (both after upgrading to 16.10). One machine exhibits *just* the two symptoms you describe, while another also has an odd bug making the numeric/formula entry text box transparent (see attached).

Interestingly (/frustratingly, confusingly), the menu and transparency issues are not present when running a guest session on that machine, but the menu remains an issue in the guest session on the other machine.

Hmm, I don't have the extra Mode menu when I run gnome-calculator from the Unity Dash but I do see it when I run gnome-calculator from a terminal.

I can confirm the menu behaves as expected when launching from Unity Dash. Launching gnome-calculator from a terminal or from the 'calculator' key on my keyboard exhibits the displaced menu symptom.

In my machines (3) the same bug occurs and it doesn't matter if I use calculator key or Unity Dash. It happens either way.

Actually, I'm no longer able to duplicate part 2 of this bug at all on Ubuntu 16.10 or 17.04 Alpha. The only bug I still see is the 'gnome-calculator' in the titlebar instead of 'Calculator'.

Same for me on Ubuntu 16.10.

Everything is working fine except for the wrong title that says
"gnome-calculator".

Is the numeric/formula entry text box transparent in 3.23.4 (as showed in picture by David Hedges) ?

Silvio, I haven't been able to reproduce the transparent bug. Could you please file a different bug for that issue? I'm going to focus this bug on just the wrong app name in the titlebar on Unity.

On the new bug, please indicate what graphics drivers you are using.

I think the fix for 17.04 Alpha was accidental when the .desktop was renamed. That change is not suitable for a Stable Release Update so a more minimal fix will have to be identified first.
