Description Nico Schlömer 2008-12-07 20:25:15 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.1.3)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

hi,

i'm not exactly sure if this is a bug or a feature of okular, the issue is the following:

out of stupidity, i removed the menubars from okular (using the 'views' option or whatever it is called in the menu bar). now, there doesn't seem to be anyway to get them back.

right-clicking on any part of the okular window? nope. -- any hint appreciated!

cheers,
nico

Press Ctrl-M to toggle the menubar visibility.  Other toolbars can be adjusted from the Settings Menu.

Closing INVALID.

There's a bug anyway, either in kdelibs or okular, open okular, remove the menubar, close okular, press Ctrl-M, and menubar does not come back, it only comes back after the second Ctrl-M press
Comment 3 Nico Schlömer 2008-12-07 23:33:24 UTC
confirming the need for double ctrl-m.

plus, hm, i don't know what kde's policy is on that matter, but i believe it's rather impossible to just 'guess' ctrl-m when one accidentally closed all bars. when looking at konsole, for example you always have the option 'show menu bar' after a right click anywhere on the application.

i guess that'd be desirable; what do you think?

cheers,
nico

That's already there, just doesn't work for the same reason of the double ctrl+m
Comment 5 Didier Hérisson 2010-11-30 11:35:26 UTC
It's also a missing feature that a novice as to search the web to find the good Keyboard combination. Menu bar visibility has to be checkable after a right click!

I agree with nico, who posted is message 2 years ago... Please!

$ okular  --version
Qt: 4.7.0
KDE: 4.5.1 (KDE 4.5.1)
Okular: 0.11.1

Kubuntu 10.10

Works for me as expected, one Ctrl+M to toggle the menubar on/off.
If the menubar is hidden, the context menu opened with a right mouse button click anywhere in the view area has an extra entry "Show Menubar Ctrl+M".
Comment 7 Didier Hérisson 2010-11-30 12:28:56 UTC
Ok, got it, sorry  for the noise... In fact, I tried most of the time right-
clicks on the toolbars, or just around them, close to expected menubar... 
So, maybe still something to change.

> So, maybe still something to change.

I'll add this to the menu description for Settings->Show Menubar:

If the menubar is hidden, the context menu opened with a right mouse button
click anywhere in the view area has an extra entry <guimenuitem>Show Menubar</guimenuitem>.
