Hello all. With SWT, menu bars are attached to Shells. In OS X, SWT places the frontmost Shell's menubar at the top of the Display. So far, no problem.
But my application handles multiple documents each in their own Shells. When the last document is closed, there should still be a reduced menu bar at the top of the Display that is associated with the application, not with any particular shell. For example, the File and Edit menus at least should remain. Instead what happens is all menus except for Apple and the application menu are removed.
Is there a workaround that in effect attaches a menubar to the Display?
Thanks for any help.
Doug

Right now this is not supported. See:
