Thanks to the geanylua-script 
https://github.com/xiota/geanylua-scripts/tree/main/toggle-menu-bar I wrote a 
step-by-step-description how to toggle menu bar: 
https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/633#issuecomment-1030634638. The problem 
is that it takes about 10 minutes to build the feature. For users it would be 
better to have a plugin like `Toggle menu bar` in the plugin manager. Then 
users could activate the checkbox next to the plugin `Toggle menu bar` in the 
plugin manager and could set a shortcut.

**Forgot the shortcut?**
- If users forget the shortcut, there is the possibility to press Ctrl+Alt+P to 
open the preferences to look for the according shortcut in keybindings.
- If the plugin would exist and if users forget the shortcut and don't know 
where to set shortcuts, I think that in short time search engines will give the 
solution, namely Ctrl+Alt+P to open the preferences to look for the according 
shortcut in keybindings.

**Options**
There are no options planed for this plugin.

**Behavior**
Once the menu bar is disabled by pressing the shortcut, the menu bar stays 
disabled even after a restart of Geany. The menu bar will appear again only if 
the shortcut will be pressed again.

**History**
2972 at geany and 1138 at geany-plugins were both closed but not fixed.

**Official plugin**
If this plugin is part of the official plugins, then issue number 633 at geany 
could be closed.

**Remark**
The toggle menu bar works absolutely perfect for me for years. I use the key 
F12 as shortcut to toggle the menu bar.
