Archicad 29 Mac System menus DON'T show UNLESS you are in full screen mode

Just built an installer for our lab that uses Archicad and after installing found that the System Menu items don't show at all (IE File, Edit, View etc).  If you switch to Full Screen, it then shows and hides the menu items.  (First 2 screen shots show what happens when you click where the menu name should be, the last ss shows what it looks like when you are in full screen but move to the top of the screen).

 

Seems like a pretty major UI bug.

After more testing it seems like something during the install kills the menu process for the entire system.  Once restarted the machine functions normally.  Still, what is Graphisoft doing during the install that kills the menu bar?

Which macOS are you using? Are you intel or arm based? We’ve installed Archicad 29 across a mixture of Intel and ARM based Macs with Sequoia and Tahoe and none of them have experienced this issue.

For clarity, I am assuming that the OP is talking about deployment via unattended / silent installation?
