Sheet Metal Icon for table view and flat view is missing????

Newbie to Sheetmetal -

The tutorials all show a sheet metal tab that is used to view the "simultaneous" flat view and table view.  This icon is not visible for me.  

I have an Education Enterprise version of Onshape.  I have attached a screenshot of my exercise from the tutorials and no sheetmetal icon is visible on the right.  Highlighting the part or the feature does not make it available.  What could be wrong?

    Closing the document and reopening fixed the issue.
    Fixed it for me too.

    For me closing and reopening the document did not help, but a shift-reload of the page did help.

    It doesn’t appear to display in the iOS version of the app either, any word on how to get to it via this means?

    Resetting helped sort my issue with a laptop browser.

    The disappearing SHEET METAL TABLE AND FLAT VIEW is still an issue.  Refreshing my browser <F5>  is the only thing that worked for me (Firefox running on Windows 11).

    Ditto Matthew. Except not just SM icon. Sometimes other icons in that group.

    Still a issue, 1.5 years later. As it is so easily fixed by reloading the page, it should be easily fixable in the product.

    Page refresh also worked for me. Running a Chrome based browser (Brave).

    Cannot find the sheet metal table on iPad or iPhone either. Never tried sheet metal on mobile before so don’t know if it’s always been like this (missing feature) or if this is a bug.
