I had thought it might be sometihng like that, but in my case this happened on a laptop that's never been connected to a second monitor. :\mwieder wrote:The only one I know of for sure is when I'm using multiple monitors and have the dictionary on the external screen to my laptop, then try to open it with the external monitor not attached. The old position seems to be remembered even though the monitor is no longer present.

Re: LiveCode Dictionary Off Screen
That's exactly what happened to me. I'd open a bug report, but I can't access the QCC. I've emaled RunRev about getting me access (there seems to be no register option), but I haven't heard back from them.mwieder wrote:The only one I know of for sure is when I'm using multiple monitors and have the dictionary on the external screen to my laptop, then try to open it with the external monitor not attached.

Hi,
As long as this bug hasn't been fixed, this plugin keeps you out of trouble by making sure that al windows open in a visible part of the desktop. The plugin is on the private section of the Economy-x-Talk website, accessible after donating.
Kind regards,
Mark
