Dear Kevin,
I think that Apple's Aqua Look and Feel creates an AWT menu bar, when the
'apple.laf.useScreenMenuBar' property is set to true.
The Synth L&F does not read this property and always creates a menu bar
inside of a JFrame.
An easy solution might be, to directly use AWT menu bars instead of Swing
menu bars. This should work with any L&F on the Mac.
With kind regards,
Werner
