My Konqueror File | View etc Menu is... gone!

Ok, somehow my File View menu is missing from Konqueror.. I've been scouring the settings for days and right clicking wherever I could to try and get it back.. but it just doesn't exist anymore... I can't access my bookmarks etc.

Is there any way to restore konqueror to it's total default state??

Thanks, josh.

I just discovered that you can put a "menubar" button on Konq's main toolbar. Not only will you never lose your menubar again, it is a great space saver. It goes welll with the System++ windows decor.

A nice thing is that in KDE-cvs, you can make the menubar of any KDE application a kicker applet. Much more mac-like

Try also pressing control-M--- hides/shows menubar by default I beleive.

Ahh, that must have been how I got rid of it in the first place...

though personally I think they should have a menu option to turn it back on in case some clueless people like me disable it

I meant a GUI option for the non-l33t among us

I've got a button on Konq's main toolbar that hides/shows the menu bar. It seems to me that this is about as gui as it gets but maybe I still don't understand what it is that you want.

You need to add the button manually. Go to settings -> Config Toolbars and then on the main toolbar move the "Menu bar" icon from the left column to the right.

PS: I also added the icons for the few tasks that I regularly do from the menu bar. For me this was bookmarks and "send link". Your favs my differ.

The only thing I want that does not seem to happen is that I have not found a way for the menu bar to be hidden by default. New konq windows always open up with the menu bar on. :cry:

Have you tried hitting ctrl m then closing konqueror?

When I do that and close then open konqueror again it opens without the menubar..
