SUMMARY *** NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Start either Dolphin or Kate 2. 3. OBSERVED RESULT No File menu when first started EXPECTED RESULT File mnu should be displayed on startup SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS KDE Plasma Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Once Dolphin or Kate have run for the first time and the menu has been displayed with Ctl-M, the problem does not recur. But for someone running Kate or Dolphin for the first time, the lack of a menu is very disconcerting since it isn't obvious what to do about it. The repair is obvious and probably very easy; make sure these programs open up in the correct state the first time they are run. Other KDE programs might have the same problem.
