            Bug ID: 138775
           Summary: Hiding menubar is not permanent in Single or Standard
                    Toolbar UIs
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.3.1 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: gilbertohasnofb at gmail.com

Description:
I am running LibreOffice 7.0.3.1 on Linux Mint 20 Cinnamon. I am a big fan of
the new option to hide the menu bar in the Writer app via `View > [ ] Menubar`.
I would like to use it with the Single Toolbar UI but unfortunately my
preference resets every time I re-launch Writer. I understand that this is done
by design as, by default, the toolbar does not have a show/hide menubar icon (I
have added one to mine). 

Most software that have an option for hiding the menu bar implements a standard
shortcut to show it at any time when hidden; all you have to do is hit the
`Alt` key and the menu bar will show up momentarily when hidden. Hitting `ESC`,
`Alt` again, or clicking outside the menubar will hide it once more. This is
how the hidden menubar is implemented in Firefox, Thunderbird, Nemo, Atom,
Typora, among many others.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Customise Single or Standard Toolbars by adding a Menubar icon to them
2. Click on the icon to hide the menubar
3. Restart the application

Actual Results:
Menubar is back being shown at the next startup

Expected Results:
User preference for hidden menubar would be kept between sessions. This might
require implementing the standard `Alt` shortcut as described in this report's
description.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
