And when working with this 'new' properties pane, I miss an important tool button!
You forgot to implement... for sure!

The button to narrow the textframe round type!!!!

Same kind of icon as for illustration to narrow the frame around.

Please, please, please... put me in a testgroup?... Maybe I can get a rebate on the hefty price tag of the Adobe software... and filter out the bugs... :-)

It probably conflicts with the new 'properties' palette/pane added to the update.
Software does not know what to save and where in the Library

And even after a while... functions on de left side do disappear, even with switching to connect to top barr... back and fourth... Nope! 's-Not good at all!

You have work to do! You lost a piece of code it seems!

Moving the bar back to free floating... the width of the bar stay's fixed. Can't tune it anymore to desired width...

After some work in process, the bar starts to become blank in sections. Losing the funtction to center, close in illustrations... in just a blink... Strange! very silly indeed :-)

Just updated! The bar went up in oblivian. Same problem.
Certainly worldwide. Should not happen! :-(
Corrupting my deadlines!!! Grrrrr.....

The sugested fix works... but have to test if it lasts...
Made some moves... stands for now on Mac

nope. it's a temporary fix. when is this bug going to be fixed?

Experiencing same problem on my PC (Windows 10).

Delete your cache it'll come back for a bit, but the items will keep disappearing as you use it.

@Paul, if you delete your cache it'll come back for a bit, but the items will keep disappearing as you use it. It's not a long-term solution. :-(

I just upgraded and I have the same problem. Help!

The application bar is completely missing, and the option to show does not highlight.

Update: Reset preferences which sorted it temporarily then after about an hour, only showed a small selection of tools on offer while the rest of the panel remained blank. Someone recommended to delete Adobe InDesign Caches from Libraries. This, so far, has seems to have resolved the issue.
