Using the editor What feature did you use:
Trying to do any non-keyboard formatting or insertions What happened:
There is no formatting bar or b/i/u button unless iPadOs General>keyboard setting has “shortcuts” turned on. What did you expect to happen:
I spent ages trying to figure out why I could not see any “B/I/U button” no matter what I did. I found a hint in an old post here, but it was very far from intuitive. You shouldn’t have to change an OS setting to make basic functionality work - I would have expected at least a warning.
Yeah you may have found my old post about the Shortcuts setting from early Panda era
And yes I still wholeheartedly agree that there should be an another way of toggling the formatting bar than a button that can be totally disabled by keyboard settings.
I’ve disabled the Shortcuts option as I find it floating on top of UI elements and getting in the way, especially when using a hardware keyboard. I think the way Apple implemented this floating keyboard accessory view is not optimal.
