Description Petr Tesařík 2025-11-28 09:36:44 UTC
SUMMARY

Konsole menu visibility cannot be permanently changed if multiple tabs are open.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open ~/.config/konsolerc in an editor and make sure that `MenuBar=Enabled` in the `[MainWindow]` section.
2. Launch Konsole
3. Press Ctrl+Shift+T to open a new tab.
4. Press Ctrl+Shift+M to hide the menu.
5. Switch back to the first tab.

OBSERVED RESULT

Menu is visible. Menu is also visible in the other tab (where it was hidden).

EXPECTED RESULT

Menu remains hidden.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: openSUSE Tumbleweed-Slowroll 20251106
KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.19.0
Qt Version: 6.10.0
Graphics Platform: Wayland

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Similarly, if you start Konsole with the menu bar disabled (`MenuBar=Disabled` in the config file), it is not possible to show it permanently after creating a second tab.

Interestingly, this only happens with Wayland. With X11, the menu show/hide works as expected.
