My dialog windows appear off the screen... Please help

A lot of my dialog windows styles for paragraph, or when I hang items appear off the screen (I see the bottom of the window, but not from the top which means that I can't move them) - suggestions?

Laurie

I tried the solution as Kipp Ky\'Eva posted, but I couldn't find an option to "Gather Windows" (after I plugged my second monitor, I saw that this dialog box was also off the screen).

I found another solution that worked for me however:

Go to System Preferences > monitors.

Click on "scaling".

Note the screen resolution you are using.

Change the resolution of the screen to do anything and then change back to your original setting.

For me, that reset the screen with all the windows in their places.

  • Dialog boxes appear off the screen

    Hello, I have problems with dialog boxes in Illustrator CS6.

    Dialog boxes are appearing in various different locations rather than a central location on the screen...

    For example: the Save dialog box appears half off the screen towards the lower right section of the screen. Various other boxes appear at the top left, top right. All dialogs are mobile, so I can reposition in the Middle, but the next time I used appear where they were not at the Center.

    I work on both a 13 "macook pro separately and with and 27" apple screen attached. Dialog boxes are visiable on 27 "screen, but often in odd places.

    Is there a way I can reset their position?

    I tried reseting all the dialogues, trashed the preferences in the preferences in the folder of the library on the computer but no luck. I'm puzzled.

    Any help would be appreciated...

    Thank you

    nosbornf,

    It is important that Illy is closed when you reset the preferences.

    Try the following (you may have tried / some of them already) and see if it helps:

    (1) close Illy and open again.

    (2) restart the computer;

    (3) close Illy and press Ctrl + Alt + Shift / Cmd + Option + shift at startup.

    4) move the folder with Illy closed;

    (5) browse and try the relevant among other options;

    Even worse, you can (if all else fails and no best answer appears):

    (6) uninstall, run the cleanup tool and reinstall.

  • File copy/delete dialog box is off the screen in a staggered multiple follow Setup

    I'm on Windows 8 on a ThinkPad W520 with a 1920 x 1080 screen and a secondary antibody NEC LCD2070NX 1600 x 1200 display connected via DisplayPort. The NEC is positioned to the left of the ThinkPad and raised higher than the ThinkPad display; the bottom of the NEC is near the center of the left edge of the ThinkPad.
    I put to the top of the poster in the Panel to take account of this arrangement:
    If I have a window of the Explorer of files open in the secondary monitor on the left and use this window to copy or remove some large files or folders, the progress dialog box is not visible. It is currently displayed in the "man no of land" above the main monitor and the secondary screen.
    The problem occurs when the secondary monitor is on the right, or above or below the primary. (I have tested some of these cases, but not completely). Also, this does not happen when the Explorer window is on the primary monitor. The problem does occur at all on Windows 7.
    Here's a film that illustrates the problem. For each image, I copied a large directory on the network and took a screenshot to display side by side and move the secondary display up to about 120 pixels in the control panel every time. You can see how the copy dialog box follows the secondary monitor vertically, but her left side is pinned to the left edge of the main screen, so he ends up disappearing from the screen.
    It is easy to see what is happening here: Explorer normally centers the dialog box of progression on the same screen as the Explorer window that opened the dialog box. This does not work as expected in the direction, but on the axis X to the left edge of the dialog box's get pinned to the left edge of the main screen.
    As the corner at the top left of the primary monitor is always (0,0), it acts as if the dialog box was positioned like this pseudo-code:
    monitor = getWindowMonitor (feed)
    dialog.centerOnMonitor (monitor)
    If dialog.left< 0:="">
    Dialog.Left = 0
    When the dialog box is off the screen, it's a bit disturbing, because it makes the impression that the Explorer window is locked. The only way I know to make visible the dialog box is with this exercise of the superpowers of keyboard shortcut:
    1. use Alt + space to open the system menu of the dialog box. The menu will open on the screen no matter where is the dialog box.
    2. Press m to move (or click on move).
    3. you will see a four-headed mouse cursor, just to fool you into thinking the mouse could do something now. It will not!
    4 instead of this, you have to hit any key of the arrow, which begins the displacement of the dialog box.
    5. now you can use the mouse (or the puree on the arrow keys) to move the dialog on the screen.

    A bit of good news...

    I just tested this on the latest version of Windows preview 10 technical, and it seems to be fixed.

  • Dialog box style off the screen

    While using InDesign full screen (3440 x 1440), the object style dialog box is on the top of the screen and cannot be dragged on because the title bar is also off the screen.  The dialog box cannot be resized (who usually move it), so I'm not sure how to make visible.  Restoration of the app is not help either - the dialog box is still mostly off the screen.  In addition, the Windows key + ShiftKey + left arrow (or one of the arrows by the way) does not affect the location of the upper part of the dialog box, passes just a screen that displays the dialog by mistake on.

    The operating system is Windows 10 on a Surface Pro 3 with a monitor LG Ultrawide.

    Thank you

    Steve,

    I contacted Adobe support, and the winning solution was to detach the Surface Pro 3 and raise InDesign with only the single monitor of 2440 x 1440.  The object Style Options of windows then jump-up in a usable place.  When I brought the Tablet, reopened InDesign and brought to the top of the window, it was still where I left it on the tablet screen and I could drag it to a site that is usable on the external monitor.  Solved the problem, but I think that it a workaround solution.  No app should place a dialog box or the same window partially off the screen in the current context of monitor/Bangkok.  Looks like a tweek for InDesign, go ahead... ;-)

    Thank you

    .. .all dialog box appears on screen is covered in "' so I can't put passwords or addresses of sites and if the sound is on a morse codes like noise appears with the comma...

    The character you are evidence is a single quotation mark or tick rather than a comma, but the character you see in reality is probably an asterisk in a mask the password text box. In both cases, the problem remains the same.

    You have a key stuck on your keyboard which instantly fills any box entry with the typed characters, they are ticks or asterisks. The only audible ringer is a normal computer error indicating that the keyboard buffer is full, but entry continues, once again an indication of a stuck keyboard key.

    Try another keyboard. It may be possible to launch a key by a sharp tap, but the problem will probably persist in the future. I hope that you don't talk about your laptop.

  • Window is off the screen, can't bring back

    2 monitors (Macbook and thunderbolt display)

    When I choose the option on a work plan for "export as" a window off the screen and I am unable to put the window on my screen.

    It appears "above" my screen, and I don't see that what looks like the lower part of the window. There is nothing to click on in this window that opens except a zoom interface (that I tried to see if it would help). I tried scaling my display (usually put windows on screen) and I tried to find a way to reduce/enlarge the box but there is none.

    Am I missing something?

  • View contact details window is off the screen

    I have a Setup dual monitor unconventional, while my laptop is connected. It resulted in the window being located far off screen coordinates. I moved the secondary monitor around the screen area to try to locate the window in order to bring it back within the view, but have had no success. I took off to try and find the window but have failed. I have reset the tiara, but this did not bring the window in sight. Tiara is not very practical for my use without this window.

    Hi XGC750

    There are two solutions:

    The first is described here: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows/bring-misplaced-off-screen-windows-back-to-your-desktop-keybo...

    The second is to change the file Config.ini from the tiara. You will find here c:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\National Instruments\DIAdem\Version-(user name is a placeholder for your login name and the Version for the current version 2012 for example tiara. Tiara first close and then change the text psosition in the:

    POSITION = 0, 0

    I hope this helps!

  • The mouse pointer & open windows disappear off the screen to the right

    The mouse pointer moves beyond the screen to the right and is not visible, as if the office is extended beyond the edge of the screen. Open programs or programs visible on the taskbar sometimes will, when clicked on disappear too out there and then I can't get them on the screen where I can see. If I'm lucky I can get the pointer in the right spot and can drag the back window where I can see it.

    I have a 22 "h - d lcd wide screen monitor. Are there settings that I need to adjust or what?

    Thank you

    You have a second monitor or a television plugged into the video card? You will need to go into your control panel of the video driver and adjust it for a single screen.
     
    You can also try the automatic adjustment of your monitors.

  • 3D object layer on camera will not appear on the record please help!

    Guys help me please... When I visited the camera does not appear on the video...

    I have created a camera, and then link it to a null object, then applied a small agitation to null, and turn on 3d on the objects I want to have this effect, in the preview is perfect, the effect flowing I want,.

    but when I returned the 3d object of layers I want to that effect is not on the video... while everything is perfect on preview... what could be?

    Thank you

    Without accurate information on the configuration of your person can tell you a lot. Starting from the expression was not evaluated correctly using a window of bad camera, it could be anything. You need to be much more accurate and provide appropriate information as parameters, rendering information system what version of AE, model parameters, and so forth. Screenshots of the timeline window and comp will help a lot.

Photoshop can open windows off the screen or partially off the screen.  At least seem be the way to a working windows.  Windows operating system provides means for moving and sizing of these windows.  Mac may also have options.
