Dear Massimiliano, dear Grégoire.

Keeping my preferences and configuration files for the lastest TeXmacs 2.1.4 build in ~.TeXmacs/ and then reinstalling the May 3 build again, I have native menu bars without any of the issues mentioned in the email above. So I guess the quirks must have been introduced some time after May 2024. For the time being, I’m considering staying with the May 3 build (in native mode) as it has proved to be pretty stable over the last seven months.

I personally think, yet another button/icon in the TeXmacs window is not really conducive to a well designed work space. Besides pressing  Option+Command+S or Option+Command+P is not really that much of an effort. 

Cheers, Tilda
