Hey guys, so I've been dealing with this issue without worrying much but as I am using a windows tiling manager within KDE, it is getting much harder to live with. I have a black bar at the top of my screen for the universal menu. The problem though, is that the bar covers things like tabs on my web browser and the close, size and minimise buttons on my web browser, dolphin and a few other applications. Could someone suggest any potential way to make the bar not behave like this please while allowing me to keep using the universal menu? Please find attached a picture as it better describes my problem I am facing. Thank you.
