    To achieve global menus you can also use Super Wingpanel with Elementary Tweaks.
    And to get that first you'll need Elementary Tweaks. Open up the terminal and enter:
    sudo apt-add-repository ppa:versable/elementary-update, sudo apt-get update, and finally sudo apt-get install elementary-tweaks. Now goto Applications > System Settings > Tweaks and you'll see some new settings. Here you can add things such as the minimise button, change themes, etc. Once you've finished tinkering, type in the terminal sudo apt-get install super-wingpanel. Once you're done that, head over to Applications > System Settings > Tweaks > Super Wingpanel. If something doesn't work, just log out > log back in. Hope it helped.
