On a couple of occasions where I have had a document open in Writer for
a while and have been switching between applications, I have returned to
Writer to find that the menu is no longer showing up. I cannot restore
it by minimizing and restoring, by switching between applications, by
opening new documents, or any other such thing that I've tried so far.
I'm assuming this is related to the other issues we're having with the
menu, but I haven't seen this particular aspect of the problem reported
by anyone else.
