One of the best functionalities in SharePoint document Libraries; the Quick Edit-tool is not there in modern document libraries. Why?
Please bring it back ASAP!

Yes @David Broussard, I could, but that just brings me to "classical" version. What when that is no longer available? And, it is a bit backwards crossing the stream to pick up water.... :) The whole point about "Quick Edit" is what the name says... ;)

Thanks for your feedback @Juan Carlos González Martín! I have checked both Team sites and Communication sites in Office 365 document libraries in several tenants and still I can't find it (and it did show in the grey bar above the documents in a document library previously).
Anyone; Bearing in mind that the error might be between the screen and the chair. How do I find the Quick Edit functionality for modern document Libraries?

Thanks @Tanya Denton, yes, a colleague of mine experiences the same, eg. that it doesn't show in one tenant, but at a customer's tenant it shows...

Yeah, I checked Advanced Settings, there is an option there to allow Quick Edit, and "Yes" is chosen...still it doesn't show above the documents in the view...?

This is strange. I am using just our tenant, and in the library that i opened where the Quick Edit didnt show, if i changed to another view, it showed! Now to check the difference between the views!

Yes! That's it! I added too another column, and now it shows....!
Conclusion might be that there needs to be a minimum of 4 columns for the Quick Edit to show?

I agree @Tanya Denton, as you won't always need 4 columns for an all documents editing. At least it should be available in the tiny arrow menu dropdown next to the other commands in the grey field.
Where can we report it?
