Hidden menu bar disables shortcuts

Hi,
New member here (Although I've been commenting on the blog).
I've just noticed that when the menu bar is hidden ( to make some room) the shortcuts don't work. This seems to be the case for the main window and clip editor.
Is there a particular reason for this?
I'm on 0.9.11
Thanks

nope, that is not the case here.
otherwise how could one restore the menu bar(s) ? i mean to restore a menu bar visibility you need to hit a shortcut (Ctrl+M).

Ok, after doing more test, I realized that it's not all shortcuts, but the ones related to zooming (in, out and reset). Ctrl++, Ctrl+-,Ctrl+1. don't respond.
Could you please confirm this?
re. Ok, after doing more test
yes, I can now confirm that the View > Zoom shortcuts stop working when the menu bar is hidden.
and, I really don't know why :/
i guess one has to live with with that ... you can still use the Ctrl+mouse-wheel for horixontal zooming though ;)
cheers

This seems like a Qt feature mentioned in https://www.qtcentre.org/threads/69686-ToolBar-shortcuts-don-t-work-when... and https://www.qtcentre.org/threads/65661-Keybord-shortcuts-for-hidden-widg... and other places.

good catch!
and then, please don't hide the menu/toolbar if you can; in these times of 4K moving to 8K and beyond, what's the use anyway? ;)
cheers
