DXView main window not visible any more
Hi,
?
usually, my DXView (4.9.8) main window starts minimized, only the World Map window is on
the screen.
?
Today I tried to maximize the main window, clicked on it in the tastbar, but it didn't appear on the
screen. I couldn't find a solution to let it appear. Uninstall and re-install didn't help as well, same
behaviour as before.
?
As I have no access to the DXView main window, I cannot pass an error log. I also have no access
to the World Map window any more, because I terminated it during trouble-shooting and would
need the main window to?let it re-appear.
?
I only was able to save DXViews application settings in the workspace, see below.
?
Any idea what I can do?
?
Thanks & 73,
Lui, DL6FBR

It has happened to me several times, also.
To bring a hidden or off-screen window back to your main desktop, you can use keyboard shortcuts or taskbar options.?Right-click on the taskbar and select "Cascade windows" or "Show windows stacked" to arrange open windows, including the hidden one.?Alternatively, use Alt+Tab to cycle through open windows until the hidden one is active, then use Shift+Right-click on its taskbar icon and select "Move" to reposition it using arrow keys, |
