Description Jason Spiro 2020-01-17 06:40:10 CET
I hid the Mousepad menu bar by accident, and couldn't figure out how to get it back.  My machine wasn't connected to the Internet at the time.

I think I tried pressing Alt+F, but this didn't work.

I would like two things, please, if possible:

When the Mousepad menu bar is hidden:

A)  If I press then release the Alt key once, please show the menu bar temporarily.

B)  If I press Alt plus any menu accelerator key, please temporarily show the menu bar and open the requested menu.  For example, if I press Alt+F, the File menu.

Thanks in advance!

Cc'ing Igor, since he kindly fixed a similar feature request a few years ago (bug 13231).
