If it’s true, it would mean Cubase on Windows would use the Windows GUI the way it’s intended … for instance, no more “bar” stuck to the top of the screen, and it would behave like other Windows applications, compliant with Windows programming guidelines.
I’m hoping for an end to stuff like this:
In windows can you please get rid of the floaty menu bar and embed it back inside the window please- its annoying and wastes space on my second monitor when I stretch mix across my dual monitor set up
I am new to Cubase
As soon as I saw the menu bar that’s doing nothing
I realized I cannot buy the software.
I didn’t used the software much except try to disable that menu bar that holds all the other windows. It seems way old and it’s a shame because maybe the software is awesome but I cannot snap the windows to other windows. It’s not a “normal” windows application.

I now have 2 monitors and I run into a menu problem.
I have the Project window on Monitor 1 and the Mixer on Monitor 2.
When in full screen mode the menu is on Monitor 1 (left side). I can click on the bar and the menu opens as you can see on the screenshot. But besides that, the menu bar itself is displayed on Monitor 2 (right screen/Mixer window). When I click on the menu items on the right screen nothing happens. When I click on the blue bar on Monitor 1 (left side) a menu pops up, but ther…
Why the Mac-style menu bar on the latest version of CuBase? Please change it back to Windows style, or at least offer that option. If I wanted Mac-style format then I would be using a Mac. But I want CuBase to allow me the same size control I have with all other Windows programs.
Am I the only one with this issue? Take some random dialog like what I just used which is the key command dialog. When I’m done with it I hit OK and BOOM … Cubase is gone! No, wait, it’s still there but it’s behind the next program in the stack of windows programs or something like that so I can bring it to front by [Alt][Tab]-ing. Sometimes it takes a good while for me to have the need for any of those dialogs so I kind of forget and then it’s all over again. Sometimes it’s …
Using Windows 11, and the first title bar that I see when cubase opens up is still that ugly beige Windows Vista-era menu bar, until I click on both the project window and the mixer and then the distractingly bright white bar comes in to focus because Cubase doesn’t respond to system-wide dark mode.
I know there are many UI fixes to be had, but this one I feel like dates the application the most.
