Bullets and Numbering toolbar not working as documented

I have a document that has several sections using outlining. The Bullets and Numbering toolbar does not pop up when I click within an outline. I have to manually pull it up using View - Toolbars.

The toolbar disappears when I leave the outline which I believe is incorrect operation. I saw in the docs that the toolbar should stay visible when using this method.

I am using version 25.2.4.3 in Windows 10 Pro.

Are your toolbars “locked”? Is View>Toolbars>Lock Toolbars ticked?

Hello ajlittoz, Yes, it is ticked. Even if it was not, the toolbar should re-appear when I place the cursor within an outline.

There may be something weird in your document. Attach a reduced sample file still exhibiting the issue.

That seems wrong.

The same with me: Version: 24.8.7.2 on Windows 10.

Following @PKG comment, I can suggest to create a clone of the Bullets and Numbering toolbar.
