Hi Keith,

the "Format" and "Arrange" tabs are dynamic and appear only when contextually appropriate. They won't be there when no tools are active, nor when a tool that can't use them is active.

A text box annotation is a good example. Add a text box and the "Format" tab appears, when the text box itself is elected yo also get the "Arrange" tab, which disappears when switching to the text within the text box as it is contextually not relevant.

I hope that explains why it appears and disappears.
