Desktop on Mojave (Electron 3) should not advertise itself as having a tab bar
See original GitHub issueThis doesn’t make sense for two reasons:
- Desktop doesn’t support a tabbed interface, so this is probably always disabled for us
- as this is rendered before the menu items in
build-default-menu.ts
I suspect these are some new defaults added in Mojave
The relevant area for our Desktop settings is here:
Opening this up for someone who knows more about macOS to dive into what the app should do and what Electron apps should do to advertise they don’t support a tabbed interface.

@agisilaos I believe you’ll need to run #6713 (which contains the upgrade) to see this change yourself. It hasn’t made it to beta yet.
I’ve just released
1.6.3-beta1
on the beta channel on macOS10.14.3
and after installing that build locally I don’t see the problem 🤦♂️:Closing this out as unable to reproduce, but if anyone else is able to spot this please comment here and we can try and dig into it further.
