Where is the menubar in evince on arch?

I just installed the pdf viewer evince on arch linux and don’t find the menubar.
I tried the Alt key but nothing happens. I also tried all other keys on my keyboard and read the FAQ on the product page.

What I was trying to do was set the view mode to continuous scrolling and two-page-layout, but that are just examples. At the moment I just can scroll, zoom and print because there are buttons and shortcuts for these actions.

Answer

There is no menubar. All functions have been put in either the F10 menu, or the WinF10 global app menu. (There really weren’t many functions to start with.)

Generally, F10 to open the application menu is more common than Alt. But I don’t know if there’s a shortcut for the “view options” popup, other than some careful tabbing.

The older “classic” Evince version is part of MATE and available as atril (or atril-gtk3).
