Fresh install 1.6.2 on kde neon missing file menu

[okoolo]

Just installed scribus 1.6.2 on kde neon (ubuntu variant) but the file/preferences menu is missing and the icons are barely visible ( 2k resolution 27 inch monitor)

used this ppa

Your system is using a dark theme and scribus is set to using a light theme.
Open scribus' preferences and  in the  user interface, main window tab. select a dark theme icon set.

I can't access preferences because the menu bar is missing.



edit: I temporarily manually added menu option from kde settings to be able to access preferences but that's still not quite what I want (It affects every application)

On a side is there to way to make the menu icons bigger? they're barely visible.

is this scribus you installed from a snap package? If your something is very broken in it. That menu should be there. I would uninstall the version you have and use your system's software installer.

edit: I downloaded few app images of different versions from the official https://sourceforge.net/projects/scribus/. Same thing which leads me to believe it must be something wrong with my system setup (none of the other apps have that issue). Not sure what but that's not on scribus.
