I think there is some keyboard shortcut that let the menu to appear again. It happened once. But I have not realized what shortcut it is.

Menu bar was OK for me but then one day just disapeared. Had to edit ~/.kde/share/config/kwriterc to remove disbable of menu bar that had suddenly happened.

Reading around it seems at one time ^M would turn off menu bar but not turn it back on. Does not seem to do anything now.
