            Bug ID: 494695
           Summary: KCalc displays no menu bar if Application Menus Daemon
                    is running
    Classification: I don't know
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: kdebug at abbotthome.net
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run KCalc
2. 
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
KCalc opens in Simple mode with no way to change to Science or other modes.

EXPECTED RESULT
KCalc should have a menu bar: File, Edit, Constants, Settings, Help. Failing
that, the menu invoked via "Ctrl+Shift+," should enable mode changing.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: EndeavourOS 
KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.0
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.6.0
Qt Version: 6.7.3

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Following the advice of an old reddit thread*, I went into Background Services
and disabled Application menus daemon. I logged out and back in and the menu
appeared. If I re-enable the daemon and re-log, the menu vanishes again.

I have no idea what this daemon does or what other effects disabling it will
have, if any. But the Background Services menu says to submit a bug if I'm
disabling something to work around an issue, so...
