1. Create a spreadsheet with a pivot table 2. Set LibreOffice's toolbar UI layout mode to "Groupedbar compact" 3. Click a cell inside the existing pivot table Result: all the toolbar group sections other than "File" and "Edit" disappear. Expected result: they should not disappear; or at _least_, the "Data" group section should remain shown, because it contains various things relevant to pivot tables, if I am not mistaken. In comparison, when using the other toolbar modes, such as "Standard" (traditional toolbars), "Tabbed" (notebookbar), or "Tabbed Compact", the UI doesn't change at all when clicking inside a pivot table's cells area. ---- Tested with: Version: 24.2.1.2 (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: db4def46b0453cc22e2d0305797cf981b68ef5ac CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 6.7; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Flatpak Calc: threaded
Reproduced in 6.1.0.3, likely an implementation error.

Justin, you digged a bit into the context sensitivity of the compact Groupedbar. Maybe this one is a more obvious fix than bug 123056?
ScTabViewShell::SetPivotShell calls SetCurSubShell(OST_Pivot) which seems to be what triggers the lost notebookbar. This ends up calling ContextVBox::SetContext, which disables the tab unless it supports context-any or context-Pivot. So the solution appears to be indicating that sc/uiconfig/scalc/ui/notebookbar_groupedbar_compact.ui needs to add context-Pivot to ContextVBox containing the styles thru extensions tab definitions.
Justin Luth committed a patch related to this issue. It has been pushed to "master": https://git.libreoffice.org/core/commit/7b515b473cfb706c9fa0b474f27d61351aeec3a3 tdf#160293 sc NBB: tabbed groupbar_compact keep tabs in Pivot context It will be available in 24.8.0. The patch should be included in the daily builds available at https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/ in the next 24-48 hours. More information about daily builds can be found at: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Testing_Daily_Builds Affected users are encouraged to test the fix and report feedback.
Thank you for the quick fix, Justin! Verified with: Version: 24.8.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community Build ID: bdf3b5ce49b0e4ee1b4525d344cfb037ef473059 CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 6.5; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: CL threaded
