I never fully understood this behavior. Seems related to screen size, definition... Difficult to test.

Yes, it is related to screen size, it's dynamic.

In the screenshot of the OP one can see

1. the Logic window does not have the full size of the screen.

2. (too) many elements in the control bar related to the size of the window.

With small screens or non-retina Macs it makes sense to reduce the number of elements in the control bar, and only use those that are actually needed.

BTW, it's easy to test, just lower the size of the Main Window...

OK. Maybe a simple display issue. Clic on the small '>>' at the right in the Control Bar. What do you see?

Right-Clic on the Control Bar > Customize... Is Record ticked under Transport?

At least you're back on track!

Thanks yoyoBen.

Yes I knew that. What I'm referring to are the exact rules that makes one Bar component hidden or not. It behaves strangely sometime.

Not really important 😉.

Thanks,
