MAC; Acrobat Professional. The ADD COMMENTS tool is NOT SHOWN on the "ALL TOOLS" menu. No, it's not down lower (I.e. "show more"). I called tech support and they advised me that the "New Interface" [which you can turn on and off under "view/enable [or disable] New Acrobat"] does NOT allow this "ADD COMMENTS" tool to be displayed. It is ONLY displayed on the little submenu, floaty-thing (see screenshot below). You CAN have the ADD COMMENTS tool displayed if you "Disable New Acrobat". This is a STEP BACKWARD, in my view. Why not have it available with all the other tools? I'm a Human Factors expert (in Aviation) and this would never be allowed in an airplane. INPUT (you listening Adobe): restore the capability for ADD COMMENTS (and every other tool) to be displayed on the "ALL TOOL" menu.

Hi, kglad! thank you so much for the reply and, I gather, having moved my post. Hoping somebody at Adobe will read it and take action but, regardless, I very much appreciate your response! --Bob

Thank you so much for posting this solution: File >> "Disable New Acrobat."
I don't mind the floating toolbar, but as a quick tool only. The full "Add Comments" should be in the list of all tools down the left side. The old method where you select a toolbar on the left and all options appear on top was MUCH better than.....taking away the most used tool. I was going crazy trying to figure out why "Add Comments" would show in the "Add to toolbar" but not in the list of tools.
