The upstream bug was closed on 2019-06-08 saying that the Preferences menu item was visible using gnote 3.32.1 in Fedora.
I can confirm that the Preferences menu item is visible in Ubuntu 19.10 (dev) where gnote 3.32.1-1 is now available. Closing as fixed. ** Changed in: gnote (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1831297 Title: Gnote application menu should contain a Preferences item To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gnote/+bug/1831297/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
