Description Luis 2025-03-04 15:09:23 UTC
SUMMARY
One thing I do to multiple KDE apps is move the hamburger menu from the right to the left, so the contents are over the window. But doing this in Konsole is broken. Removing the hamburger menu does work, but trying to put it on the left breaks stuff, and beyond removing the hamburger menu, other changes don't seem to be saved.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Click on "Configure Toolbars" on Konsole
2. On the session toolbar, move the "Open Menu" entry to the left
3. Click apply

This does get saved. (As in, closing and opening console shows this same state), but

1. Click on "Configure Toolbars" on Konsole
2. On the session toolbar, move the "Open Menu" entry to the left
3. Go to the main toolbar.
4. From the box in the left, put "Open Menu" to the right.
5. Put "Open Menu" to the top on the box to the right (so that it's the 1st button).
6. Click "Save".
7. Observe how multiple different buttons and even another main toolbar called "Main Toolbar <Konsole>" appears.
8. Close Konsole, and reopen it.

OBSERVED RESULT
The toolbar layout wasn't saved, the layout shown is the same as the default layout but with the hamburger menu  on it.

EXPECTED RESULT
Whatever layout is configured is saved.

I may have been a little bit too hasty in marking this as a duplicate. 
Part of the described behaviour ('multiple different buttons...another main toolbar... appears') is indeed BUG 442179.
However, even with the draft fix from MR!1079 there is still odd behaviour when adding the 'Open Menu' action to the main toolbar. I can add  other actions to the toolbar and they get saved, but the 'Open Menu' doesn't show up unless I do a 'Configure Toolbars' -> 'Apply'.
