@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social ooh...
A hamburger menu in Kate :ablobcatknitsweats:

My fears seems to come true 😰

I'll wait to see the final result but it's probably for me the signal to start to look for something else 😟

@grum999@masto.ai @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Actually you can just press Ctrl+M to toggle it.

@grum999 @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social

It's been there for several versions now. Its disabled by default and only shown if you have your normal menu bar hidden, because large programmes like kate with a lot of options needs the classic menu bar for ease of access.

So nothing for you to worry here.
( And even if it were the default, checking the show menu bar button would probably be easier than switching to something new, don't you think? )

@whjjackwhite @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Ooh you means that's optional, and classic menu bar will still be here for whom prefer it!? :blobcataww:

Yes. Likewise in all hamburgerised applications. It is optional in all of them. [Ctrl]+[M] will toggle between one mode and the other.

@Bro666 I wasn't aware of CTRL+M
This makes my day thanks!
(Then I'll maybe reconsider other applications for which hamburger seems to be the default...)

I always use classic menu and never saw that the hamburger menu already exists in Kate 😅

I was so afraid when I saw the screenshot :ablobcatknitsweats:

You'll most likely be able to restore the Menubar in Kate just like you can in Dolphin.
