      I just got an e-mail from a friend who uses a Mac. He said the boxes like entity Info and Components are off the screen and he can't get hold of them to drag them back. I suggested he try increasing resolution if he can to make everything appear smaller to see if he can then get hold of them. On the PC, I might also opt to either delete the SketchUp Registry entiries or at least edit them. Is there an equivalent sort of thing on the Mac that one can access?

        It's the MAC's Plist and he'd need something like PlistEdit to find/change the entry...

            have him try resetting the workspace.
            (sketchup->preferences->workspace->reset workspace)

            that should bring the panels back.

              FWIW, adjusting screen res temporarily allowed him to get hold of the boxes and move them back to where he could deal with them.

                Thank you, Jeff! I've been having a recurring problem of the Entity Info box shrinking so you can't see more than the layer name, and even reinstalling SU only fixed it for a few operations. Reset Workspace was the cure.

                  On a PC there's a hide/show button [top-right] to expand some dialogs - is there the MAC equivalent ?Capture.PNGCapture1.PNG

                    Yeah, that option is on Mac too but occasionally, the SU entity info will get this little glitch in it and some of the info is seeming stuck to the edge. Expanding the dialog box doesn't help.
