I've been working on a book for our last trip for several days. I clicked on save book when I first started working on it. I set it to Large Landscape and proceeded to create the book. I used an auto layout, which I always do. Then as I go, I change as needed. I've been adding text and adding a few photos that I added to the catalog. Everything was just fine, and all of a sudden the screen went black with one photo in the center of the black screen. No tool bar, nothing worked to get it back to the book module working screen. I finally turned off the computer, turned it back on and started in the book module. Well...the size had changed to standard landscape, the tool bar disappeared. So now I can't choose between all the pages, just the flat lay of two pages or just one page...and can't just click to advance a page. I went into settings and clicked on Large landscape and it seems to be ok. but the tool bars are still gone. The size of the book still shows in the upper left corner...the orange bar at the bottom of the pages that allows you to choose photos is missing, the options to choose all photos, the two page spread, or the one page option are gone. Also, the save book options are gone. What happened?
Any suggestions? I'm very frustrated!!!

Your screen clip appears to show you are in Full Screen View with all the panels OFF although your description of how you got into this view would not fit that scenario
