I updated to 18.04 and I cannot find gedit's settings menu anymore. There's a "hamburger" menu at the top right corner, but it doesn't contain anything useful. How can I set the tab width, enable line numbers etc..?

          With gedit in focus, you should see it up in the activities bar, separate from gedit's window. Click to open the drop down menu, and you will find Preferences.

          • Right, thanks! :) I had the editor on a second screen that doesn't have the bar, only launcher.
