On my PC, at the window size I run Calibre at, the menu bar isn't quite wide enough to display the "Preferences" button. If I click the ">>" at the end of menu bar to make it appear, "Preferences" appears at the left side of a second row of the menu bar. No problems there.
The problem is that, of course, my mouse is at the right side of the window (having just clicked ">>") and "Preferences" is at the left side of the window, so I have to move the mouse across to the left to get to it. About half the time, during the process of moving my mouse across the "Preferences", the second row of the menu will spontaneously disappear again, and I have to repeat the process all over again. It sometimes takes 3 or 4 attempts to successfully get to "Preferences" without it disappearing!
It's a trivial thing, but it's something that Calibre has always done for me.

Mine will do the same, BUT, as long as my mouse stays ON the tool bar (either row) the second row does not disapear.
In any case here are 2 possible fixes for this....
First use smaller Icons for the tool bar buttons.
(Preferences -> Look & Feel -> Tool Bar "Icon size")
Second Remove the button names from the tool bar.
(Preferences -> Look & Feel -> Tool Bar "Show text under icons")
Both options will shink the displayed length of the tool bar so it may be that all the buttons are visible in 1 row.
