                    <description>&lt;p&gt;Whilst using split touch controls, you are limited to 5 hotbar slots. While this may be intended, the app must first be force-quit and reopened for this to occur.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

If you go to close the app after fixing this, it goes back to five slots the next time it is opened. You can temporarily fix this by going into the game options, turning off split controls, bringing your d-pad size all the way down, turning split controls back on, then adjusting the d-pad to your preferred size. This will add an additional two slots to your hot bar, for a total of seven hot bar slots. This is temporary, so until the glitch is fixed, this will have to be repeated almost every time you load up Minecraft.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

A workaround is to change your controls out of split touch, restart, and change them back. This has to be repeated every restart/launch, however.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

                            <comment id="230846" author="bearfoot jebus" created="Fri, 12 Jun 2015 22:51:34 +0200"  >&lt;p&gt;There is still an issue around this in 0.11.1 (after 1st &quot;Secret Friday Update&quot;); here&apos;s a report:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;1. Go into game with split off and the default medium button size.&lt;br/&gt;
2. Open/create any world: you will have greater number of buttons (7 on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2, 10.2&quot;).&lt;br/&gt;
3. From world, go into options and turn on split controls.&lt;br/&gt;
4. Exit options: number of hotbar buttons stays at the greater amount.&lt;br/&gt;
5. Do pretty much anythything that interrupts program:&lt;br/&gt;
    a) exit game,&lt;br/&gt;
    b) use taskbar to go to homepage,&lt;br/&gt;
    c) switch to another application,&lt;br/&gt;
    d) let device timeout and blank screen.&lt;br/&gt;
6. Rejoin game: number of buttons will be reduced (to 5 on my tablet).&lt;br/&gt;
7. Go back into options and turn off split controls.&lt;br/&gt;
8. Exit options: number of buttons stays at lesser number.&lt;br/&gt;
9. Do anything listed in step 5 and rejoin: number of buttons goes back up.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I can understand if it is a design decision to allocate more lower screen space for a second thumb with split controls on; however, there seems to be an issue with requiring a game interrupt before this change takes effect.  Based on the comments (and jammin&apos; attached video &lt;span class=&quot;error&quot;&gt;&amp;#91;grins&amp;#93;&lt;/span&gt;), I think it would be preferable to stick to the greater amount of buttons with or without split controls, which would be my preference as well.  One can always move their second thumb up on the screen a little to avoid the hotbar, jmo.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

                            <comment id="224141" author="rplatham" created="Thu, 9 Apr 2015 02:06:14 +0200"  >&lt;p&gt;This bug has been reported several times in many different releases.  I&apos;ve linked them all to this bug report since the bug is still occurring.  Please put comments on this bug here, please do not create a new bug report for the same issue, that just slows us down.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The bug involves the number of available hotbar slots not changing properly between 5 and 6 depending on changes to the input method and the size of the D-pad.  Sometimes it requires quiting and reloading the game for the hotbar slots to change or changing the input method several times to get the number of hotbar slots to change.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Another example (from &lt;a href=&quot;https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE-6649&quot; title=&quot;When you put your d-pad size down with split touch con trols off your get six hotbar slots. But when you save and quit it goes back to 5 slots.&quot; class=&quot;issue-link&quot; data-issue-key=&quot;MCPE-6649&quot;&gt;&lt;del&gt;MCPE-6649&lt;/del&gt;&lt;/a&gt;):&lt;br/&gt;
1. Go into a world.&lt;br/&gt;
2. Press the pause button.&lt;br/&gt;
3. Go into the options menu.&lt;br/&gt;
4. Turn split touch off.&lt;br/&gt;
5. Make the d-pad as small as it goes.&lt;br/&gt;
6. Go back into the world.&lt;br/&gt;
7. You should have 6 slots.&lt;br/&gt;
8. Save and quit to title screen.&lt;br/&gt;
9. Double-tap home button and quit out of Minecraft Pocket Edition.&lt;br/&gt;
10. Go back into the same world.&lt;br/&gt;
11. You should have 5 slots again.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>

While this may be intended, for this effect to activate the app must be forced quit and reopened. Tested in creative mode.&lt;/p&gt;</comment>
