iOS 13 added a whole set of gestures that all key off of three-fingered interactions with the screen. Just tapping with three fingers shows that bar, which is probably all you're managing to do accidentally.
The rest: three-fingered pinch-closed to copy ("picking up"); three-fingered pinch-open to paste ("putting down"); three-finger swiping left/right for undo/redo... and three-finger double-tap for an undo shortcut.
Totally agree this is undiscoverable, but it's also fairly well gated behind a single root gesture so once you understand the trigger it's memorable.
- whywhywhywhy 4y agoWow thanks. Yeah no idea that was a thing. Think I remember seeing the bar during WWDC and assumed it replaced the existing one. A cheat sheet or a tutorial like the OG Mac mouse tutorial would go a long way.
