Lost screen

[michaelk]

I was having a great time in my office changing all my interactive settings in 2009.

Now I'm back on the road and my interactive setting window is on the other screen. (I use 2 screens when I'm at home). I can see the edge of it, but I can't drag it back to the main screen.

Short of disconnecting a hotel computer monitor, is there any way to move it back to the main screen?

Try switching to another workspace.

Great ideas, but neither one did the trick...

I may have to go raid the business center of the hotel...

Go to System Preferences:Displays and set you resolution way down to something like 640 x 480. Then set it back to the default. This should bring any windows off screen to a place where you can reach them.

A splendid idea! Thanks, Pat!

I keep losing especially worksheets. Made this once:

PROCEDURE RescueWS;

CONST

top = 100;

left = 100;

bottom = 500;

right = 500;

VAR

worksheet : HANDLE;

BEGIN

worksheet := GetTopVisibleWS; { ie. the one selected from the menu }

SetWSPlacement(worksheet, top, left, bottom, right);

END;

RUN(RescueWS);

Thanks Pat!

That worked. Hotel computer monitors are safe from now on.
