The screenshot shows a Calc file where a polygon has been drawn, I've clicked on edit point but the edit points toolbar does not open. In the square down right i pasted a picture of the e toolbar I expect to open up.

Problem description: 
Points of a drawn object in Calc cannot be edited. Despite clicking on the edit point icon, the edit point toolbar does not open. This is a known problem and affects previous versions.

Steps to reproduce:
1. open Calc
2. draw something like a polygon
3. click on the edit point icon

Current behaviour:
The edit points toolbar does not open up.

Expected behaviour:
The edit points toolbar opens and gives the possibility to do the edit points operations (see: https://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Edit_Points_Bar)

In write this works fine
              
Operating System: Ubuntu
Version: 4.1.0.4 release

A strict reading of the link you gave provides this for the icon in question:

Edit Points

The Edit Points icon allows you to activate or deactivate the edit mode for Bézier objects. In the edit mode, individual points of the drawing object can be selected.


The icon does in fact "in the edit mode, individual point of the drawing object can be selected" ability.  Although I do agree that the other icons are on the page with no indicator of how to access them.

Due to this lack of clarity it seems reasonable to assume the toolbar should appear.  I have therefore marked this bug status to new as it has been confirmed.

It is a long time ago that I reported this same bug for OpenOffice.org:

https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=55720

I don't know whether the two projects (AOO and LO) are working together, but I provide the above link anyway..

** Please read this message in its entirety before responding **

To make sure we're focusing on the bugs that affect our users today, LibreOffice QA is asking bug reporters and confirmers to retest open, confirmed bugs which have not been touched for over a year.

There have been thousands of bug fixes and commits since anyone checked on this bug report. During that time, it's possible that the bug has been fixed, or the details of the problem have changed. We'd really appreciate your help in getting confirmation that the bug is still present.

If you have time, please do the following:

   *Test to see if the bug is still present on a currently supported version of LibreOffice (4.4.1 or later)
   https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

   *If the bug is present, please leave a comment that includes the version of LibreOffice and your operating system, and any changes you see in the bug behavior
 
   *If the bug is NOT present, please set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED-WORKSFORME and leave a short comment that includes your version of LibreOffice and Operating System

Please DO NOT

   *Update the version field
   *Reply via email (please reply directly on the bug tracker)
   *Set the bug's Status field to RESOLVED - FIXED (this status has a particular meaning that is not appropriate in this case)


If you want to do more to help you can test to see if your issue is a REGRESSION. To do so: 

1. Download and install oldest version of LibreOffice (usually 3.3 unless your bug pertains to a feature added after 3.3)

http://downloadarchive.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/old/

2. Test your bug 
3. Leave a comment with your results. 
4a. If the bug was present with 3.3 - set version to "inherited from OOo"; 
4b. If the bug was not present in 3.3 - add "regression" to keyword
