Build Identifier: 

Context button pad is visible for a graphical entity when the following method from the class ContextButtonManagerForPad returns a boolean ‘true’ value.

       
      private boolean replaceContextButtonPad(IFigure figure) {
            // requires new context buttons, if there is no active figure
            if (getActiveFigure() == null) {
                  return true;
            }

            // requires no changed context buttons, if the given figure equals
            // the active figure
            if (figure.equals(getActiveFigure()))
                  return false;

            // requires changed context buttons, if the given figure is a child of
            // the active figure (otherwise children would not have context buttons
            // when the mouse moves from parent to child -- see next check)
            IFigure parent = figure.getParent();
            while (parent != null) {
                  if (parent.equals(getActiveFigure()))
                        return true;
                  parent = parent.getParent();
            }

            // requires no (new) context buttons, if the the mouse is still in the
            // sensitive area of the active context button pad
            if (getActiveContextButtonPad() != null) {
                  if (getActiveContextButtonPad().isMouseInOverlappingArea()) {
                        return false;
                  }
            }

            return true;
      }

If figure's parent is not equal to the active figure, then this validation will return boolean false and context button pad will not be visible on the figure.
The above mentioned case is very much possible. 

Reproducible: Always
