OnlyOffice Desktop Editors Title Bar

Problem
OnlyOffice Desktop Editors draws its own title bar, which prevents the window manager from displaying its usual context menu (sending to another desktop, keeping on top, shading...).

Context menus in the Title Bar
Solution
Modify the application's .desktop file to add the --system-title-bar parameter.
Procedure
Copy the system .desktop file (from /usr/share/applications) to your home directory under /home/<your username>/.local/share/applications
Open the copied file with a text editor such as gedit, geany, or mousepad, modify the Exec= line, and save.
Exec=/usr/bin/onlyoffice-desktopeditors --system-title-bar %U
The change will take effect the next time OnlyOffice is launched.
Note This local file takes precedence over the system file without modifying it, and survives OnlyOffice updates.
