Doc Library webpart "New" button missing
Maybe its not even the code, because several users in the company are able to see the "new" button while others can't...
But these users have the same permissions...
We also thought it had something to do with languages, but even if we tweak site/browser/computer language, the results are the same. Some users can see the button, others can't
So we could use some help to figure this out...
We have found the cause of the issue:
When the site collection feature "Open documents in client applications by default" is active, the "New" button on the Modern Doc Lib Webpart disappears.
This also happens when the feature is deactivated, but the Doc Lib setting is put on "Open in client application"
this is also related to my other post: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/SharePoint/New-Document-List-0-does-not-exist-at-site-with-URL-1/m-p/226069#M20410
Can somebody from MS please confirm this is a bug?
