Tom,

I don't see the menu bar "overlaying the content of the screen", it's
always at the top of the window. I agree that it's using pixel space at the
top of the window that could be used for content, but it's necessary.

Try using Edge, FIrefox, or Chrome and see if that behavior is consistent
with what you're seeing in IE.

Cheers,
Andy
