Version: 3.0a4 (using KDE KDE 3.1.1) Installed from: SuSE RPMs Compiler: gcc-3.3-23 glibc-2.3.2-6 OS: Linux There is no element inside the GUI to get the menubar displayed if hidden. So I had to remove the gideonrc file from disk to trigger a new GUI initialization on startup.
Ctrl-M is the standard KDE shortcut for this. It works in Gideon too.
The report talks about the GUI! If there is a menu action to hide the menu bar but nowhere, e.g. in the context menu like in Konqueror or Konsole, an entry to show it, it's a valid bug report. If you have an editor running in Gideon it's even not possible with Ctrl+M because that's the standard shortcut for "Editing Command...".
Fixed in CVS, there is a "Show Menubar" item in the RMB menu now.
