Codelite menu bar has been hidden

Hi I'm currently using CodeLite for my IDE, and I cannot seem to find a way to bring back my menu bar. Originally I was just trying to add other bars back by clicking through, but I ended up un-checking the menu bar, and now it's completely hidden. Hidden menu bar image

I also accidentally hid this panel just now. I managed to get it back like this:

  • Close CodeLite
  • Open: C:\Users\your_username\AppData\Roaming\codelite\config\codelite.conf
  • Find the line "ShowMenuBar"
  • If the value "false" follows, then replace it with "true"
  • Save and run CodeLite

After these actions, I got the main menu again

You can reset CodeLite by deleting the following folder. Be sure to run the Setup Wizard again after doing this

Close CodeLite

Delete the following directory: C:\Users\your_username\AppData\Roaming\codelite

Then restart CodeLite and rerun the Setup wizard. You will need to re-configure and re-make any templates you had saved, but you won't lose your work.

I know this is an extremely late answer haha, but I ran into the same issue a few days ago and just got it fixed. I hope anyone in the future who runs into the same issue sees this and save them the headache of waiting ages for help.

The default keyboard for that is Ctrl-F11 (minimal view) This includes:

  • Hide the menu bar
  • Hide the toolbar
  • Hide the docking windows captions

You can re-enable them all or separately:

  • Hit Ctrl-F11 again
  • From the Goto Anything (Ctrl-Shift-P), type menu bar and select it
  • From the menu bar (once it visible again) Menu -> View -> Show Tool Bar, Menu -> View -> Show Menu Bar etc

HTH, Eran
