The preferences button is in the Application menu:
- if you use GNOME Shell, that's the menu next to the « Activities » hot corner
- if you don't use GNOME Shell, there should be a « Swell Foop » menu in the application

I think this is working as upstream intended it though, so if you think it is not appropriate, you should probably talk about that with the upstream developers.

My bad, my apologies for filing out the problem. This is actually the first time I see some real usage of the application menu. Will close out since is clearly not an issue
Thanks

Don't apologize for filing a bug! :)

Yes, this is all brand new (it started appearing for some apps in 3.4 if I recall correctly), and it's still a bit confusing as not all GNOME apps have been ported.

This should become clearer over time though, when more and more apps use the Application menu.

Wow, this is the first time that I have seen this location of the application menu ....

I only found the menu after reading the document about 3 times ... to actually follow the text. I did not realise that it was a munu related to the application.
