No, the hamburger menu button I implemented is only meant to substitute the menu bar if the menu bar is hidden for whatever reason. The button can be put anywhere in the application but it's most common use is to put it on the toolbar. It's a more feature-rich version of the current hamburger menu in Dolphin.
Unrelated to that, menu bars and toolbars can already be hidden by users in many KDE applications. So if someone hides the menu bar, my hamburger menu button should show up somewhere instead of leaving users without any menu at all.

I wish to politely object. :) Horizontal space is not an issue when a window is maximized on such a display, but it is very much an issue when two windows are tiled size-by-side, which is an arrangement that is otherwise quite natural and comfortable on widescreen displays.

Many good ideas here. I just want to add that I still think having labels in one way or another would be really useful, for several reasons. (I listed a few more in issue D29242). After all, horizontal space really isn't an issue with modern computers all using 16:9-screens. A portrait view might be another matter, there I'd prefer the ComboBox.

The thing is the current code was made to adopt to many different user wishes - so the user could choose
What you are doing is to throw all that away - would it be impossible to have this new way as a mode so we don't throw away the old but enhance it with something new.
I don't mind if the new mode becomes default

Hi everyone! I'm new here (though I have been lurking around the KDE Forums for a while). I just noticed this task and thought I'd add a comment. I completely agree with what is suggested here. I find the version with colorful icons much easier to parse, navigate and use. Not to mention it looks more uniform and coherent. I usually find color helps very much with quickly locating things, especially when they are small. The uniform shapes also helps icons work better together with the text. Either way, thanks for all your hard work on KDE! I'm really happy this amazing DE exists!
