"Preferences" section missing in the "Oracle Data Modeler" Menu (macOs Monterey)

Hi community,
after installing the Oracle Data Modeler application, when launching it I cannot see the "Preferences" section in the "Oracle Data Modeler" Menu.
Is it a bug?
Please find below the list of installed components.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Luigi.

I solved the problem downgrading:
Oracle SDDM from 21.4 to 21.2
JDK from 11 to 8

It is a bug. It does not show up using Java 11 or higher.
Oracle Data Modeler 21.4 works also with Java 1.8.
As a workaround you can use ⌘ , (Command + comma) to open the preferences dialog.
Best,
Ivan
