can't swipe through YouTube ads anymore with Touch Bar on mbp

Hi


I know not everyone's a fan of the Touch Bar but it "was" great for swiping through ads when watching YouTube.


That functionality now seems to have disappeared, any idea why please?


Cheers

Ok feel a bit foolish here but have solved the problem, it wasn't a YouTube/Apple conspiracy!


I updated Safari recently and unbeknownst to me it reset the keyboard preferences!


System Preferences > Keyboard > checkbox "Touch Bar shows App controls"


Feel a bit of an idiot but just in case anyone else notices this
