Hi Louise,
The 'shy bar' (minibar) has some quirks. Some of them are as Cindy mentioned, because it's beta software, some may not be improved.
For example if you highlight some text you may get better results in having the minibar appear depending on whether you then 'mouse
in' from the left of from the right of that text.
Hi Cindy
Thank you for your reply. I've checked my settings and the 'show mini
toolbar on selection' option is ticked. For some reason, some times it works
and some times it doesn't, I have to deselect the text and then select it
again and it works. Strange....
