I just updated indesign and the top horizontal toolbar is missing. I tried everything but it doesn't work. I find it very useful to see everything as it was before.

Hello @Astonished_joy5409,

I'm sorry to hear the suggestions did not help. Could you confirm the exact version of the OS/InDesign installed and share a small screen recording of your exact workflow and the problem, so we can better assist you?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi Beata,

you are looking for the Control panel.

Like all other panels it's available under Window > Control.

The only panel that behaves a bit different is the new PDF Comments panel that is only available when a document is open.

Regards,
Uwe
