After deleting only the menubar.xml file, the bug is still here, so this doesn't seems to be the file creating the bug. If you want me to upload something else, tell me what.

There's a Writer compatibility configuration item (under Tools -> Options, LibreOfficeWriter -> Compatibility, a checkbox named 'Reorganize Form menu to have it MS compatible'), if you have that checked, it uses a different Form menu, with items similar to what MS Word has (it has a limited selection of controls so far). Unchecking that will get the regulard menu back.

If that solves your issue, please close this bug report as RESOLVED NOTABUG.

Thanks. It was that.

It might be good to have a way to tell that in the menu personnalisation GUI.
