How can I have menus as it was before unity?

Probably not on the desktop as was before but can I have those menus under dash? a lense maybe?

Answer 1

The feature not available with unity launcher.

Update: You can have this feature almost same with unity desktop but not exact. It will look like below

To do so: run following commands,

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:diesch/testing
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install classicmenu-indicator

Alternatives:

1. Install cairo-dock and use it. Optionally hide the unity launcher.

   

2. Install gnome-shell and choose gnome classic at login screen. But you will loose unity

   

Answer 2

It's available and can be installed with the command

sudo apt-get install gnome-panel

remember to choose your desktop environment at the login prompt.
