Description

Environment
  • TeXstudio: 4.9.2
  • Qt: 6.10.2
  • OS: Debian forky
  • TeX distribution: texlive 2026.20260527-3
Expected behavior

I'd like a way to hide menu (all of them) and keep the shortcuts working. I don't see the benefits of blocking the shortcuts.

Actual behavior

When I hide a menu in the editor the shortcuts aren't working anymore.

Thank you very much for your great software (use it almost every day)
Have a nice day

Research direction

No file or test is named. First reproduce the shortcut failure in TeXstudio 4.9.2 with the editor menu hidden, then trace the menu and shortcut handling; done means shortcuts continue working when all menus are hidden.
