Bug Description

Sometimes gwenview stops showing the title bar. It stays in a full screen mode, where the menu bar is at the top, and the task bar is not visible. But the button to come back from full screen is not visible, so I am stuck in that mode.

Everytime this happens, I need to delete the file ./.config/org.kde.gwenviewrc, and then Gwenview starts working normally.

I am attaching the ./.config/org.kde.gwenviewrc file that I get when the issue occurs (without the recent section).

Sorry, this is the right org.kde.gwenviewrc when the issue is present.

And this is a org.kde.gwenviewrc when gwenview works fine.
