Description Tara 2016-04-15 04:05:12 UTC

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start with the menubar shown
2. Select to configure the toolbar
3. Add and or remove a button from the toolbar to put the configuration dialog in a state where changes have to be applied
4. In the Settings menu, click the Show Menubar item to deselect and hide the menubar
5. Click Apply in the Toolbar Configuration dialog

Result:
When the toolbar changes are applied, the Menubar is toggled on again. However, the visibility toggle indicator next to the menu item in the Settings menu is unchecked. If from here you click on the Show Menubar item, the menubar with toggle off. If you check the Show Menubar item in the Control toolbar button, it will appear selected even though the menubar is now hidden.

Expected Result:
The Menubar should stay hidden.

Observations:
I also tried the steps above while starting with the menubar hidden. When Apply is clicked in the Toolbar Configuration dialog, the menubar quickly appears and disappears. This looks like a glitch. Hopefully though, this observation will help track down the code that is erroneously showing the menu bar and what I assume is a hack that is toggling the menubar state when Toolbar Configuration changes are applied.

This appearance only affects the current dolphin window. New instances display correctly. No functionality is affected.

I can confirm on my machine.

Machine specs - 
 Version 16.08.3
 KDE Frameworks 5.28.0
 Qt 5.7.0 (built against 5.7.0)
 Distro : openSUSE Tumbleweed 20161128 Snapshot

The issue does go away like Tara said by just closing and opening Dolphin and so this is a minor glitch

Comment 2 Justin Zobel 2020-10-24 00:49:10 UTC

Tara can you please confirm this is still an issue with the most recent version of Dolphin.

Comment 3 Tara 2020-10-26 12:14:16 UTC

Sorry, I can't confirm as I'm not currently running kde.
