1 For cross-platform users (macOS and Linux), the combination of buttons that display is dependent on the toolbar setting. For example, some buttons may not be visible if the Tools>Toolbar Display Mode is set to Normal and the Tools>Toolbar Button Label is set to Show Icon and Text. It also depends on whether you are using a Widescreen or Regular Screen Layout.
