    SOLVED: kdevelop3 missing menu!

    Hi!
    Yes, i'm a developer -- for COMMAND LINE programs. Thus, I don't know much about the inner workings of the GUI. I'm just preemptively answering a question or two.

    I use Kdevelop3 (C/C++ anyway) to develop a few small programs that i use on my machine (but are usually customized versions of already-existing programs). In the last couple days, suddenly the menu decided to disappear!! no File menu, no edit menu. No tools menu. No settings menu. Nothing. the toolbar is still there, everything else is intact. But the menu decided to disappear. This is obviously a problem.

    What i've tried so far:
    Poke about the configuration files, found nothing. Poke around the documentation, nothing. Search google, nothing.
    as a last resort, i purged the setup files, and reinstall from scratch:
    apt-get remove kdevelop3 (and kdevelop3-data, kdevelop3-plugins) THEN dpkg -P kdevelop3 (and kdevelop3-data, kdevelop3-plugins)


    Still, the menus are not there. This leads me to believe that the problem isn't the kdevelop3 program, but something else on my system.

    Anyone have any idea what's up?

    Just a quick check, have you tried Ctrl+M?
    (it's the shortcut to hide/show the menu in kde apps)
