Hi :)
Nicely spotted.  Back when the 3.3.x documentation was being written the team 
put that type of problem at a lower priority than re-branding and just getting 
the guides out quickly.  In 3.4.x people took a lot more care with the GS and 
Writers Guides.  

I think the sentence needs to be broken-up into 2 but feel free to change it 
around to make more sense in Korean and then maybe try giving a rough 
translation into English.  

Translations don't have to be word-for-word do they?  Different cultures 
sometimes have different thought processes so some points might need a 
radically different approach.  
Regards from
Tom :)

I think it should be "bulleted" list. Apart from that, both versions look OK to 
me. Version 1 is perhaps more elegant as we already know we are talking about 
floating toolbars; the point is that you get a different one depending on the 
current cursor position.
