Missing admin bar

I noticed this in the alpha site and mentioned it once, but I figured (along with everyone else, I assume) that a setting just got messed up.

Where is the admin bar in 4.x? I can only get it to appear when the screen width is narrower than a certain size- it won't show up in a maximized desktop window. I've tried IE11 and Chrome.

Am I missing it somewhere obvious? Another toggle or something?

    Michael,

    The admin bar is hidden by default in 4.x, but should appear if you move your mouse to the bottom of the browser window.
    Perhaps your maximized window is sized so that the bottom part of the browser window is off the screen?

    If you can't get the menu to appear, try it on the demo site - I can verify that it works there as expected - even when the browser window is stretched across multiple monitors.

    What I did was took the theme.css from the Flat theme and removed the stuff I didn't need and then add it at the end of my css links in the template. I'm using a custom theme. This is mine with urls removed:

      I would shy away from editing the .css files themselves directly. Part of the great thing in using Less with Rock is when there are updates to components (like the admin bar) in a Rock update, you just need to recompile your less files to get all of the changes. By manually altering the css files, you get to a state when you may get out of sync. It has been beneficial for us to never ever touch the .css files and use only less. Just my 2 cents!

      My 2 cents are: why are people messing with the internal Rock theme so much, anyway? People just hate orange? ;-) In all seriousness... as with many things in technology, just because you CAN do something doesn't necessarily mean you SHOULD. Here we've found nothing so offensive in the staff-facing portions of Rock that we needed to redo them.
