I'm using Acrobat Pro 2022.003.20281 on a Mac OS 12.5. In past versions I could dock the Quick Actions Toolbar to the top of the window, but in this version of Acrobat, it hovers in the upper left, sometimes covering art that I need to see when zooming in. Is there a way to dock it so it isn't hovering, or at least temporarily hide it? The attached image shows how it is "floating" above the window. I need it to not float so it doesn't cover my PDF workspace. Thanks!
Hi All,
Hope you are doing well.
We appreciate your valuable feedback! We're always looking for ways to improve Acrobat, and we appreciate the time and effort you have taken to share your thoughts with us.
We acknowledge that the new Acrobat represents a notable change; however, we hope that as you get familiar with the new interface, you can be more productive and get more out of Acrobat.
We are actively working on all the currently unavailable features, such as moving, hiding, or re-s

Agreed, it would be great to be able to move/remove/add tools in Adobe. Being able to remove the Quick Actions is a start, but I also think it'd be better if users could place tools on the top toolbar like in previous editions (and in almost every other MS Office product). Users would likely feel more comfortbale using your product if they could arrange their editing workspace in a way that suits them - not being forced to view things the way Adobe demands.

Yes, it was under the three bars. So ridiculous and a waste of time.

Thank you so much! I could get used to the tool being on the left instead of the right, but having that floating toolbar covering my document when I zoom in is just plain stupid.

I'm sorry but new here. Where is view? I don't see it on my screen.

Thank you very much for the solution. Long term though, can we never enjoy the new UI design because of this toolbar? I would rather not be stuck in the old UI forever. A great temporary solution but is this going to get fixed?

I created an account just to thank you for this answer, Scott. Everyone feels the need to ruin a perfectly good thing to justify their continued employment or fees

THANK YOU!!! The "New Acrobat" is terrible. That floating quick actions bar is the worst. Blocking me from checking measurements.

Thank you! I appreciate your advice and it worked. I prefer the old version. They should update the apps with new features, but leave the view alone.

Thanks for this ansewer as I have been trying to figure out how to make the toolbar go back to the right side of the screen like I've been accustomed too.

There is no View > Disable New Acrobat in the new 2023 version. The new positions of all toolbars are unusable for someone who is right-handed. There is no Navigation Pane that I can find. So how do you rotate, extract, etc.? Click 5 times and it's buried under a nonintuitive section. Does anyone know how to either (1) move the toolbars to where they work well for the user; or (2) go back to the previous version? Also how do I get the ribbon back? I've right-clicked on everything and there is no right menu. This is the worst version I've ever used.
