Dropbox Paper on iPad: wont display text formatting bar with Magic Keyboard

I’m using an Apple iPad Pro 12.9…. No problem at all using DropBox Paper both the App and the Web version…

 

But if I attach the Apple Magic Keyboard then Paper doesn’t display the text formatting bar - both on App and Web - so becoming really hard to do any formatting… I still can use the keyboard shortcuts but having the text formatting bar would help a lot…

 

Any hint?

    Hey wmac, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

     

    Would you mind sending us some screenshots showing this behavior?

     

    Both from the web version and the Paper app, if possible.

     

    Thanks in advance!

      See attached screens when iPad connected or not to a Magic keyboard.

        Hi wmac, happy Friday, and thanks for the screenshot! 

         

        Could I reach out to you internally, in order for us to have a closer look into this?

         

        Thanks!
