Kile missing "Settings" dialog after update to kubuntu 12.10

Solution 1:

Try removing the user specific file for Kile. I had the same problem after I messed with the toolbars.

~$ rm ~/.kde/share/apps/kile/kileui.rc

These guys had the had the same problem. They suggest the folder ~/.kde4 where on my system 12.10 (64) it was in ~/.kde.

Solution 2:

My installation of Kile lost the entries in the settings dialogue as soon as I changed one item in any of the toolbars. My solution for this might help you out as well.

It appeared I could avoid this by adding the button "Configure Kile" to a toolbar.

This approach retains your personalised toolbars.

^{My sytem: Kile 2.1.0 / KDE 4.9.4 @ Kubuntu 12.04}

Solution 3:

Another way of getting system settings back is by resetting your toolbar: right click the toolbar, select "Configure Toolbars...", and then click the "Defaults" button on the lower left.

Solution 4:

I've found another solution for this...

vim ~/.kde/share/config/kilerc

there I edited the MainWindow configuration, just search the word MainWindow using

/KileMainWindow

and edited the keyword value named MenuBar. I founded it configured like this:

MenuBar=Disabled

after that I switched to able.

Saved the file, re-launch Kile and worked perfectly.
