Elliot Kirk I was using this feature and suddenly the toolbar has disappeared and I cannot figure out how to get it back! I am a student so this feature helped when professors send pdfs of notes that I want to add on to without printing a whole ton. Please help!

Thanks for reporting that. This is unexpected. Refreshing the tab does not help? Or closing the tab/browser? Please do file a feedback in any case.

Closing it at first didn’t help. I opened a different file and was able to get it back!

  Marxen97 I've found the bug appears when i resize the window. the toolbar goes away; never to return until edge is closed and opened. i.e. it shows up when edge is maximized; and the goes away on a reszie. BUG!

Vyankatesh_Gadekar I encountered this last night as well when using the edge update. I can't seem to activate the toolbar with drawing on a pdf now? did something change around this? I did close and reopen edge and now i see the toolbar; so it's some strange mode or bug.
