When you view a timeline created with the legacy version but viewed as the new standard the quick access create menu is missing from the bottom right of the screen. This only occurs when moving from view to edit within the timeline. the menu is present when you start in the edit view   Firefox 122.0.1 snap for ubuntu Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS

Steps to Reproduce

  • create a timeline prior to the new timeline feature,
  • switch the view to the new standard timeline format from legacy
  • select to view the timeline
  • select edit on the navigation bar at the bottom of the screen
  • Operating System

    Linux

    Browser

    Firefox

    This happens to me when going to the view / share link, but not when being in the edit link. Are you accessing the timeline with the wrench icon or the eye icon?   Though I am not sure if the menu should be gone if you are on the view link and switched to edit.

    The quick create on presentation will not be coming back for timelines :) If this issue is on the editing mode please let me know ;)

    nvm I changed my mind, I think it makes sense like it is at the moment. Though it is a bit confusing from an UX perspective when you accidentally click the wrong button and then can't see it when switching to edit mode.
