Description kadlecf 2017-12-07 16:31:25 UTC
After modifying toolbars ("Configure toolbars"), the okular menu is corrupt; several menu headings are called "No text" - instead of File, About, Settings. Also some items from these menus are lost, so I see, e.g.,  no (File|) Open, Open recent, nor (Settings|) Configure shortcuts, (About|) About Okular, About KDE. This behavior is the same if I reboot the system.
Comment 1 Albert Astals Cid 2018-01-01 23:55:29 UTC
which version are you using?
  okular -v
unspecified is not very useful
Comment 2 kadlecf 2018-01-02 09:10:00 UTC
Version is 1.3.0
Comment 3 Albert Astals Cid 2018-01-04 21:34:38 UTC
Which kxmlgui version are you using?
Comment 4 kadlecf 2018-01-05 08:17:44 UTC
I don't know... how can I find out?
Comment 5 Burkhard Lück 2018-01-05 09:20:25 UTC
Help->About Okular
Libraries Tab -> KDE Frameworks version
Comment 6 kadlecf 2018-01-05 09:26:21 UTC
This tab says:

● KDE Frameworks 5.40.0
● Qt 5.10.0 (built against 5.9.2)
● The xcb windowing system

I hope this helps.

Can you reproduce the same problem with other KDE software? like ark or kate?
Comment 8 kadlecf 2018-01-12 12:03:39 UTC
I have tried to reproduce the bug with kate, but I did not succeed. Then I went back to okular and I tried to repeat the situation I had in December- that was a fresh OpenSUSE Tumbleweed installation -, to no avail. I have tried these also in a different user session, but still, I am no more able to reproduce the former behavior. Maybe this is due to the system updates I made in between.

I seemed to have reproduced this issue with Dolphin. See here: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=443316

I did configure the toolbar, but then reverted my changes, and now the menu options all show "no text"

Thanks for the report!

Does that mean you clicked the “Defaults” button before applying the changes with “Apply” or “OK”?

When I remove the files in ".local/share/kxmlgui5/okular" the menus were restored. And the okular configuration (toolbars, annotations...) remains as before.

This same issue with Okular and "no text" appearing in the menu bar has been present for me for about a year under KDE neon user edition. 

I kept thinking it would resolve itself with every new version of Plasma (now 5.27.1) or Okular (now 22.12.2), but it didn't. 

I finally removed the files in ".local/share/kxmlgui5/okular" and I'm back to normal. 

I'm attaching the old files from .local/share/kxmlgui5/okular.
