picture of menu bar missing items.

Occasionally the menu bar on kdevelop messes up and does strange things. I havent found what causes it yet, but it seems to be pretty random.

A few of the issues i've found:
1. randomly adding strange menus to the menu bar
3. randomly removing menus from the menu bar.
2. dropdowns for menus being empty when they normally have items in it.

i have attached a screenshot that shows one of these issues. As you can see from the screenshot, the run menu is empty. (at this moment, almost all of my menu bars are empty).

Has anyone taken a look at this? at least twice a day i have to restart the program because it breaks all the menus.
Comment 3 Milian Wolff 2018-01-09 16:07:42 UTC
Interesting, I've never seen that. If you hit it so often, could you do us a favor and try to reproduce it in a KDE environment to rule out an issue with the desktop environment?
Comment 4 Ian H 2018-01-10 19:28:21 UTC
I attempted to test it by installing the kde desktop environment, but i couldnt even get the menu bars to show up (on any apps). I will have to set up a virtual machine at some point when i get an opportunity.
