Menu bar missing in gedit

I don't know what I did in gedit (and nautilus), but menu bar gone away. Here a screenshot. Actually, menu bar changed but I like the "classic" way, with "File, Edit...". What I did wrong and how I can I fix this?

I am using Ubuntu 14.04.

Solution 1:

if you are using GNOME 3, you can access the preferences via the top menu.

you should have "activities" on the top left corner of your screen. on the right side of activities, you will have gedit. click on it, and you should see the preferences.

I decided to use pluma instead of gedit:

sudo apt-get install pluma

It looks just like gedit did about 2 versions ago. This will work fine (for me) until gedit gets straightened out.
