Way to persistently disable the menu bar in Konsole on Gnome 3

gnomeguikonsole

I'm running Konsole 16.08.3-1 (installed via pacman) as my default terminal emulator under Gnome 3.22.2. Normally, when I start Konsole, I hit Ctrl+Shift+M to hide the menu bar; I only sparingly use it, and generally the white menu bar distracts from my overall dark terinal.

Is there any way to hide the menu bar persistently so that I don't have to hide it manually every time I start Konsole?

Best Answer

There are actually two different settings. The one you described in your question, Ctrl+Shift+M or Settings > Show Menubar is for the current window only.

You can disable the menubar for newly created windows permanently by unchecking Settings > Configure Konsole > General > Show menubar by default or by changing/adding

[KonsoleWindow]
ShowMenuBarByDefault=false

to ~/.config/konsolerc
