1. Re: AI window is stuck in place
James Blonde Apr 14, 2008 6:47 AM (in response to Michael Brown12)It sounds as though you may have gone into Full Screen Mode.
At the very bottom of the Toolbox, there is a little box, click and hold the mouse down,
and select Standard Screen Mode -
2. Re: AI window is stuck in place
Michael Brown12 Apr 14, 2008 7:26 AM (in response to Michael Brown12)Thanks, that works, but that is not at all what I'm talking about.
I am not in full screen mode. I can grab the lower, right hand corner of the box and make it the size of a postage stamp, pull it to the extreme lower right corner of the monitor, or any point in between. I just can't move the window around. The top of the window is tucked underneath the AI tool bar that runs across the top of the screen when AI is active. I apologize if I'm not explaining it well enough, but, as I said, it is somewhat unbelievable that software--after 13 iterations--would be designed this way. Thanks for your help, but that is not it at all.

8. Re: AI window is stuck in place
(Martha_Bostwick) Apr 15, 2008 1:23 PM (in response to Michael Brown12)I have done the same thing, in AI and in Excel. In AI, I fixed it by turning of the Control palette (under Window), then i was able to see the top of the document, move it back down, and then turning my Control palette back on.

9. Re: AI window is stuck in place
jpro2007 Apr 15, 2008 3:25 PM (in response to Michael Brown12)yeah, when I typed tool bar above, I meant control bar. It is far from stuck, you can turn it off, move it, dock it to another side of the screen... the initial problem described is sort of like being trapped on and escalator during a power outage...
