    I have dual monitors set up for SU and keep SU on one and the dialog boxes grouped together on the other. somehow while moving/maximizing/minimizing them around on the screen i pushed one off out of view of the monitor and cannot bring it back into view. Iv tried closing than opening all boxes from the drop down menu as well as restarting my machine but still cannot find it. would uninstalling/installing SU solve my problem? and if so would that affect any files or components that i have saved? re dual monitors is the way i use them the best/most efficient way and are there other benefits to the setup? thanks.

      Sean,

      There are lots of users (even in these forums) with dual monitors so it can be a good way to use SU.
      On the other hand, I don't have them so I cannot really give relevant answer to the "dual monitor" part of your question but what I know (and have experienced) these dialogues "tend" to hide behind your main window in certain cases.
      Minimizing your main (SU) window won't help becasue it would minimize all "related" windows, too, but "resizing it (in non-full-window way) to some small can reveal a "runaway" dialogue which you can then drag into the main window or elsewhere (to your secondary one or I don't know).

      I hope this helps.

      Gai...

          Great. 😄
          (Once I had a bunch of them gotten stuck behind my task bar)
