Just noticed in the manual there is two shortcuts for the Popup - Point Edit Widget Toolbar
Ctrl Shift P - Point Edit Widget Toolbar (Recommended)
Ctrl Space - Point Edit Widget Toolbar

I do not remember why I put the additional Ctrl Space shortcut in but it needs to be removed
Also, I need to put the Ctrl Shift P shortcut in the POINTEDIT CONTEXT because Cycle gives an error if you are not in PE Mode!

Also, I need to change the CTRL SHIFT P - Popup toolbar shortcut to Ctrl Space

I just noticed that the Popup toolbar(S) show on my Desktop

The OwnedBy attributes need to be set in your Popup scripts for all of the Popup toolbar(s)
Edit:
After looking at your Open Toolbar script, maybe it is just the Popup toolbar that does not have the OwnedBy attribute set

Should I remove the Obj NAV / Enter edit mode / Uneditable script?

.
If I do, and you PE the object, the Dimensions are not correct
