mintMenu behaviour

[Izecson]

hi, I'm new to Linux Mint and I just want to clear something up..

Whenever I click mintMenu, it stays open and not automatically close after I chose an application (it doesn't behave like Windows/Ubuntu start menu). Is this normal?

If so, can I make it behave like Windows/Ubuntu start menu?

Thanks

It is default behaviour - should perhaps be a long delay insted - not much is more irritating than a menu that closes before you make your choice
The solution is
right click menu--> preferences, un-tick pin menu
At least I hope so
Not quite sure if this works - tell us

It worked for me with Cassandra.

It didn't work for me. The mintmenu still behaves the same way as before.
Any other suggestion?

Scratch that..

I've just restarted my comp and Husse's suggestion does work..
thx Husse.

restarted my comp

So that's it - it did not work for me, but I did not reboot. Probably enough to restart x (ctr+alt+backspace)
