Hello Dale,
It's intentional as it is.
Please read also my other comments in the Files section..

Special hints for MAC-LTspice
MAC-LTspice doesn't have a menu-bar with all these commands.
Please use the function keys. It will need a little bit exercise
until you can quickly work with this function-key method.
F2 Get components
F3 Draw wires
F4 Label net
F5 Delete
F6 Copy
F7 Move
F8 Drag
F9 Undo
Shift F9? Redo
Spacebar Zoom to full extent
s? Enter Spice Directive
t? Enter comment
Draw a wire in the direction of 45 degree:
F3
Now hold the Shift-key while drawing the wire with any angle
.lib name or .lib ./name
Normally .lib filename works. I remember one case when I needed .lib ./filename
Dialog windows for the analysis .TRAN, AC, .NOISE, .DC, .TF, .OP
Press the key s to get the dialog window for SPICE-lines.
Now "right mouse click" in this dialog window.
Follow "Help me edit -> op Analysis command".
Polarized electrolytic cap?
F2
polcap
There are even more nice symbols in [Misc], e. g. a European resistor symbol.
F2 "Misc"? -> European Resistor
My personal experience.
MAC-LTspice is 64bit code and runs at least as fast as the WIN version.
The only drawback is the slow speed when you zoom-in or zoom-out.
Mike told me that he can't improve this the next few months.
I missed the toolbar at the beginning. After I exercised the Fx function keys,
I am quick with this Fx method too.
Best regards,
Helmut
