SharePoint Online Text Editor Ribbon Items Disappear and File Editor will not save changes
We've also noticed this issue since Monday. We use the online text editor extensively as part of our workflow (to allow users to quickly update markdown files in the browser). It has been working fine for the past 6 months, but I think MS rolled out some 0365 updates over the weekend and it seems to have broken the toolbar. I remember something like this happening a while ago (some UI in SharePoint/OneDrive went missing and then it mysteriously appeared back again after a few days).
Can anyone at Microsoft confirm this is a bug that will be fixed? To reproduce:
1. Upload a text file to OneDrive
2. Using the web version of OneDrive, select the file > Open > Open in Text Editor
3. Try to edit and save the file (even the keyboard shortcut to save is not working)
There should be a tool bar like the attached image (onedrive-toolbar-missing.jpg) which allows users to edit and save the file
Michael Murphy thank you for your response.
Mysteriously the ribbon reappeared today. I think you are correct that it was related to an update. I also think that it was resolved with another update today.
intersign Happy to hear it's been resolved. Still waiting for the update here, hopefully it will appear in the next few days 🤞
