Hi.

Somehow I've managed to lose the window which appears on the screen when I click Edit with all the editing options. I still can move things around but not much else.

Does anyone have an idea on how to locate and get the Edit window back?

Thanks - Dina

it's probably just off screen..if you have a hud on your screen click to edit and then scroll out with your mouse wheel and you should see it off screen

When u hit Edit, do you get anything at all? You said u could still move tings- if that is the case, see if u chose Less- thus closing the More features- there's a little button in the Edit window that expands and collapses the Editing features.

I've done this several times Dina, each time with a slap to the forehead because I've forgotten how I lost it the time before! In every case, it's been tucked away, almost off-screen, as a result of inadvertently dragging it about as far as I can. I'm really only echoing Ceka and Amaranthim's advice, but at the same time wanting to reassure you that it's there somewhere! :)

That was a good idea. No not there.

did you go up to the menu's at the top and uncheck it then recheck it already to see if it activates..also if you have not tried a relog try that..it sometimes resets it..

Almost but not quite.

It was hiding behind the AudioVideo controls at the bottom right of the screen. I turned off the Toolbar and it popped its head up enough to grab and move it.

Thanks everyone for your suggestions.
