Can't access libraries

Post by Richard McComas »

I'm running the latest build on my desk top computer running windows XP. I've been running this configuration for several year with out problems.

Last time I use the program all worked fine. Today I open the program and click on the cabinet editor and move my mouse pointer to the right hand edge of the screen as usual to access my libraries. Usually when I do this a dialog box pops out from the side of the screen and I can pick the standard library or one of my own. Now when I do this nothing happens, same results in batch cabinets, layout room and all usual places one would do this.

It sounds like the item window has ben undocked. Do you have a side bar as shown in second pix.If not Look for something like in Firs pix.You can click on it then resize until you see the X in the upper left corner click on it.It will return to the side bar.

Scott, thank you for you're time and interest in replying to my post.

Everything is good now. The problem was not what you though it was. This is a little embarrassing but the last time I used the program I had opened the the dialog box, expanded it to entirely cover my computer screen. I then had moved the box clear off the screen so I could see the main screen. Evidently I exited the program in that configuration and upon reopening the program it was still out of view.

Thank you again. :oops:
