In the OKULAR installed on this computer, some of the menu items say "no text".

See screenshot.

Your version says unspecified, which is your version?

scrennshots of "about"
Comment 3 Amnon 2018-07-29 08:32:35 UTC
Unlike the okular program on my other computer, here I can  only see the "about backend" listed in the rightmost menu. See the screenshots of that.

On the synaptics manager I can see thtis:
"okular universal document viewer
"installed version   4:17.12.3-0ubuntu1"
Comment 4 Albert Astals Cid 2018-07-29 10:29:50 UTC
Sincerely your installation seems to be very broken and i'm not sure what i can really do for you.

Try removing .local/share/kxmlgui5/okular/part.rc and .local/share/kxmlgui5/okular/shell.rc (or rather move them somewhere else so in case they are the cause of your problems we can try to figure out how they got so broken).

Comment 6 Amnon 2018-07-29 18:35:20 UTC
I removed the two files as suggested. Now the "about" looks normal. See screenshot.

Am I safe, or do I need to do more?

menu items visible

I forgot to say - now the menu items look normal
Comment 8 Albert Astals Cid 2018-07-29 20:25:13 UTC
Did you keep the files as i suggeted so we can inspect what may be wrong?

the .rc files

There are the deleted files (zipped)
Comment 10 Amnon 2018-08-05 12:03:55 UTC
Today the bad behavior of OKULAR returned (no text on menus etc.). 

I deleted to two implicated files, and this removed the bad behavior. 

But clearly this is not a permanent fix.

Do you have an idea of what you did so that it happened again?
Comment 13 Amnon 2018-08-08 18:50:15 UTC
I don't know what's causing the problem. 

Now the okular looks all right. 

The two files in question seems to be written when I modify the menu configuration. I did a few changes. Then I rebooted. But still no problem. 

A mystery...

This problem is still present.

Okular 1.9.0

After I hide and restored the "page bar" some entries show "no text"
