Missing Show Menu button in Dolphin toolbar

Feedback Beta Testing
1

I just installed the beta to test out your Calamares installer. The only thing I selected was the Plasma desktop and left everything else as default. Once on the desktop I checked fior updates and then proceeded to setup Dolphin. When I go to setup Dolphin’s toolbar I can remove and add the items I want, but for some reason the Show Menu button will not show up after hitting apply. Anyone have any idea why this might be happening. Thanks

@CookieSource I am not familiar with KDE Plasma. Do you know about this issue?

Hi, Thanks for contacting us. I looked at your issue but I am unable to replicate it.
Did you make sure to slot the menu-bar to the right by clicking on the right arrow and then hitting apply or ok?

Yes I dragged Show Menubar to the right pane and hit apply. Here’s how it looks in Manjaro.

most likely has something to do with that theme by default the toolbar is not there but the button is here after adding it, as that’s the default toolbar location, alternatively if you hid the toolbar you can right click on the top to select show toolbar

It’s not the theme I use this custom rice for all Arch based distros with no issue what so ever, plus as I stated the above image is from Manjaro and what is circled is the Show Menubar Icon.

Here is a screen from Reborn as you can see I have Show Menubar applied but the last icon on the toolbar is the Open Menu button. The Show Menubar icon just will not show up. As a test I added items I never use and applied and they showed up without issue.

EDIT:

I also tried the below which has always worked when the menubar has been removed and the context menu item for it has also been removed. The context menu item missing is done by the OS developer.

cd ~/.config
sed -i 's/MenuBar=Disabled/MenuBar=Enabled/' *rc

Thanks guys for trying to help. I figured it out. Would of helped if I had fully read my own notes. I simple had to remove the global menu aka application menu from Latte Dock and run that command. My notes below from a post that I made on the KDE forums a good while back after figuring out how to fix the issue.

 This ended up being more of a pain in the ass than it should of been. Turns out a combination of getting rid of the Applications Menu on LatteDock, performing the below in Konsole, and then reboot to have the Menu Bars back.

cd ~/.config
sed -i 's/MenuBar=Disabled/MenuBar=Enabled/' *rc
