Follow-up Comment #1:

We had a discussion about "mini windows" on the GNUstep mailing list just
about a month ago.

Perhaps the following answer helps you as well. At least it help Andreas
Schik who started that thread. If your problem persists, could you please
provide some information about your settings and your window manager?

OK, thanks for the hint. I played around with WMaker's mini window
settings and found that the menu works if I switch on 'omnipresent
mini windows'. As i use only one workspace I ignored this setting so
far. But still mini windows work only if GSAppOwnsMiniwindow is set to
NO ( as you descrbe above).
What is the reason behind GSAppOwnsMiniwindow anyway? What do I
achieve if I set it to YES?
