Adds an alternative, theme-aware title bar and application menu that is more inline with Atom's UI design.
This package is aimed mostly at Windows users, as the native Windows title bar doesn't really go well with Atom's UI design. This title bar replacer adds a functional custom title bar, that lets you move, scale, and utilize Aero-snap features. It also adds a custom application menu that is somewhat more intelligent in terms of design. The default behaviour of the title bar and application menu is to choose colors based on the theme you are currently using. However, most of the colors can be customized in the settings, and the menu can also be hidden.
Install through Atom's install view or use apm:
$ apm install title-bar-replacerAs of Atom version 1.53.0 you no longer need to patch Atom in order to hide the
native title bar! Go to Settings > Core > Title bar, and set it to hidden.
Restart Atom and enjoy the custom title bar.
The menu bar can be fully utilized from the keyboard. Pressing Alt will allow you to access the various categories through alt key shortcuts, or arrow keys.
- Alt - toggle alt key shortcuts or close menu if it's open
- ←↑↓→ - navigate the menu
- Enter - Use selected menu item
- Space - Use selected menu item without closing the application menu
- Esc - Close menu
- Alt+Shift+M - Toggle menu bar visibility
- Ctrl+Alt+Shift+M - Toggle title bar visibility
There are provided settings to adjust the title bar layout style as well as a few different window contols presets. If there is some design you are unhappy with, or some design features you miss, the title bar is highly adjustable through CSS (Atom's stylesheet).
