find dialog off visible desktop - how do I move back?

Post by rd2 »

Hello,

I had two monitors on this computer, but one burnt out. I am assuming the reason that I can't see the find dialog is because it is off the screen. If I press F5 and type then press enter it does actually do a find, but I just can't see the find dialog.

How do I move the dialog back onto the visible desktop?

Thanks

Randy

Perhaps you can drop the desktop resolution down to the minimum value and then move the find window to an appropriate location before returning to your original desktop size?

F5 to select the find dialogue box
Alt-<space><return>
Then you can move the dialogue box using arrow keys
