Re: new IDE issues
What platform?
I have no issues in that respect on Windows 10.

Re: new IDE issues
What happens when you move that untitled stack off screen a bit? From that picture, it looks like it is full screen.
Couple of suggestions would be -
. move that stack
. if you have the menubar available, go to messagebox and type
set the loc of stack "revTools" to (100,100)
. check to make sure the tools palette is actually checked to be shown, under [Tools -> Tool Palette] menu.
Off the top of my head, that is all I can think of.

The menu bar is also not available
Re: new IDE issues
Hi.
These are all stacks. The menuBar is stack "revMenuBar". You can set its loc just as Bogs mentioned for the revTools stack.
But do let us know how this resolves.

Re: new IDE issues
I am sure that this devolves to the OP having a stack at full-screen, so:
1. Did you set that stack to full-screen?
2. If you didn't, did that just start like that when you chose File/New Stack?

And you don't see it when you follow the first step?
If you don't see the message box on windows, you can always use this keyboard combo -
Open/close message box = [ctrl + m]

Re: new IDE issues
i dont have a menu bar or message box
i tried using the control + M combo and nothing happened
I have installed and reinstalled different versions of the livecode ide 3 times now...
what is in the picture is all i have
my livecode ide worked fine until the new design was implemented

Re: new IDE issues
Which new design is that?until the new design was implemented
The IDE's design has been fairly consistent since about version 3.0
Re: new IDE issues
I wonder whether you have ever had an additional monitor connected and the IDE stacks have defaulted to the other screen coordinates. Or the default locations have just got corrupted. Perhaps try closing LiveCode, deleting the "Preferences" stack and reopening LiveCode. That should recreate a new Preferences stack with defaults, including locations.

If you are in a hurry, you can also use:

Code: Select all
set the loc of stack "revMenuBar" to the screenloc
