Description Hackeron 2004-06-17 20:22:48 UTC

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.90)

I would like to particulary have a way to toggle the menubar in kwrite, just like I can edit it in konqueror.

But realy some consistency is needed. Should be a way to toggle menubar for each KDE app.

Comment 1 Stephan Binner 2004-06-19 07:49:42 UTC

This must be implemented in every application as there must be always a way offered in context menu to reenable it.

Comment 2 Hackeron 2005-01-14 16:22:53 UTC

It should be implemented indeed. Any updates on this?

Comment 3 Amir Taaki 2005-10-13 18:29:31 UTC

i was just about to report this as well. I usually hide my konqueror menubar and bring it up as needed using CTRL+M...

Comment 4 Hackeron 2005-10-13 18:50:34 UTC

well, vote for it and maybe it'll get done :)

Comment 5 greatbunzinni 2005-11-13 13:46:14 UTC

The "toggle menubar" through the Ctrl+M accelerator is a feature that not only is extremely usefull but that is a trademark of a typical KDE app. Because it is a trivial thing to implement, I believe that there is no reason not to implement this feature.

Therefore, I believe that KATE would benefit from the implementation of this feature.

Comment 6 Hackeron 2005-11-14 14:41:55 UTC

well, common people, if you want this feature please vote for it.

Comment 7 Hackeron 2006-05-29 23:57:38 UTC

no one?

Comment 8 Eelis 2007-07-26 10:25:11 UTC

Just a yearly update to reflect the fact that this feature is still desired in 2007 :).

Comment 9 Dominik Haumann 2007-07-30 23:26:37 UTC

Valid indeed, maybe you want to provide a patch? :)

Comment 12 Ragnar Thomsen 2012-12-05 21:09:06 UTC

I vote for an option to hide the menubar in kwrite/kate.

Comment 13 Andreas Kuhl 2013-01-08 12:31:09 UTC

This is now possible in KDE 4.10 with appmenu support.
