Hi, comparing the Debian packages koko_25.04.0 and koko_25.08.0, I've seen the Configure/Settings menu is now not as accessible as it used to be.

I've also done a bit of bisecting and found
- the "Configure" button was removed in 7156f7b, which retained the hamburger menu in the top left
- in 45cf217 the hamburger menu was dropped, that leaves no way to access the Configure/Settings menu from the "Pictures" section

```
