I installed xfce4-appmenu-plugin out of curiosity but uninstalled it a few hours later because it keeps me from reaching the menus with keyboard shortcuts and it incurred considerable CPU overhead on my laptop, which made the fan spin faster and reduced battery life considerably.



Somehow, LibreOffice apps are now refusing to show their menu bar at all without the appmenu plugin thing.
LibreOffice Calc missing menubar



I have removed ~/.config/libreoffice and reinstalled LibreOffice, but neither has worked so far.



How do I get the menu bars back?



I have LibreOffice 6.1 on Debian Testing.

          I use Linux Mint 19 Cinnamon 4 so not clear if this works for you. But this same problem has been plaguing me for a while usually when themes change or installing some big graphics program changes some gtk settings.



          Close any open libreoffice documents.
          How i fixed was going to synaptic package manager and search the following libreoffice-gtk packages



          libreoffice-gtk
          libreoffice-gtk2
          libreoffice-gtk3



          Select all for complete removal.
          After removal , select all for reinstall.
          Sometimes it's installing only packages libreoffice-gtk and libreoffice-gtk2 only that work.
          Menus usually come back after.



          This is a blunt quickfix for a reoccuring issue. So if someone can explain further why gtk changes screws up libreoffice menus it would be appreciated.
