Menu bar not being passed to KDE Global Menu [Flatpak/AUR] #1951
Description
Description
Enabling the menu bar on Pinta will spawn an in-window menu bar, not sending it to the KDE Global Menu widget. This bug doesn't occur in other apps, signaling that it might be a Pinta bug.
To Reproduce
- Use KDE Plasma
- Create Global Menu widget on a panel
- Enable Menu bar display on Pinta under View → Show/Hide

Pinta's behavior is exactly the same with the flatpak package, and the AUR pinta and pinta-git packages.
Something else I thought would be useful for the development team to know:
A month after #1418 was merged, a user in issue #781 pointed out that this interaction was working properly:
Appears to be working fine on KDE. Much better than before with unified menu which required extra clicks.
#781 (comment)
It may be that an update since then (June 2025), either on KDE's side or Pinta's, broke this interaction.
Version
KDE Plasma v6.5.5
CachyOS with kernel 6.18.6-2-cachyos
Tested on Pinta v3.1.1 stable and v3.2 Git
Please let me know if I can provide any additional details.
