AVL 23.1 / e 0.27: strange behaviour of Qt apps

Hi,

with Enlightenment 0.27, the menu bars of Qt apps (Hydrogen, qpdfview) no longer appear on top of the window, but in the lower shelf (taskbar), which gets quite crowded - is there a way to put them back where they belong?

For the curious:

Hi,

Can you post a screenshot to show what you mean? I don't think I'm following. I'm on E 0.27 here and see no changes to how QT apps behave so something visual would help.

Here a picture of the qpdfview menu bar. It disappears when the window is minimized or in the background.

I had created a new Enlightenment configuration "from the scratch", so there might be a setting for this somewhere.

I removed "Anwendung" from shelf --> "Inhalte", and the menu bars appear on top of the windows again.

Phew, good! Since I use the AVL-MXe profile I was having a hard time figuring out what had happened, and I wasn't finding any relevant settings in the window settings.
