[Solved] How to make text object toolbar permanent

[JohnMolta]

[Solved] Recently the "text object" toolbar stopped appearing automatically when I opened a document (don't know what I did to cause this). This is the one that shows Bold, Italic, etc. I can turn it on with View->Toolbars->Text Object. But when I close the document and then open it or any other document is gone. How can I make it permanent?

Hi and welcome to the forum!

Try to reset your OpenOffice user profile.

Please add [Solved] at the beginning of the title in your first post (top of the topic) with the 🖉 button if your issue has been fixed.

The Text Object toolbar is context sensitive. It should appear automatically only when a Text Object is selected. It It shouldn't appear in a new document or when a document is opened. Perhaps you turned off the Formatting Toolbar which also has Bold, Italic, etc. and normally appears in all documents. Use View > Toolbars > Formatting to turn it back on.

Indeed, I couldn't remember the correct toolbar, that's the Formatting one!
I'm so used to the side bar now, I've removed the horizontal one years ago.

Reset of OpenOffice user profile did the trick. Thank you Hagar and the others who responded.
