Created attachment 108528 [details] Appearance of KolourPaint Color bar gone. OS: Lubuntu 14.04
I'm not sure I know what I see in this attachment. Do you show the color toolbar _inside_ the painting area ? Can you right-click in the MENU area and see if the color toolbar checkbox is checked ?
Created attachment 108572 [details] Screenshot of menubar select. Screenshot of menubar select.
Since I do not see the checkmark in the context menu beside the colors toolbar, it seems it is hidden. However I have deactivated the ability to hide it at some point in time, which is seen also in your screenshot as the entry is greyed out. So I assume you once used an older version of kolourpaint, hid the color toolbar, upgraded, now it's still hidden but greyed out so you can't show it. I suggest to find the config file of kolourpaint, which should have the name kolourpaintrc somewhere below your $HOME, and then remove the file and then restart kolourpaint.

can you still try to remove the rc file and see if anything changes, please?
That was the first thing I tried. Thought restarting KP would restore the proper file. No help.

Then back to my first question: Do you show the color toolbar _inside_ the painting area ?
Created attachment 108635 [details] attachment-16827-0.html No. Nowhere. It doesn't appear anywhere.

At what size do you use the kolourpaint main window ? Can you enlarge it and if so does the toolbar show up ?
Created attachment 108637 [details] attachment-28194-0.html Full screen is the same. I shrunk it to make a smaller attachment. Probabli a module lost. I removed and re-installed KP. No change.

Then I'm sorry, I have no idea what happens on your system. Since the color toolbar is an integral part of KP, it isn't something you can miss. And if I understand you correctly, you are using the old KDE4 based version, which is no longer maintained. The current version is 17.08.2
Created attachment 108638 [details] attachment-30411-0.html OK. I have work-arounds.
