Project Browser missing
I am asking for help to find the Project Browser.
The Project Browser window should be visible when a user selects Tools > Project Browser. It is not. I suspect it is simply not visible or it is hidden but I cannot seem to force it to appear by clicking that menu item. The other elements appear/disappear on demand via the Tools menu, but not the Project Browser.
I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling LC
LiveCode Community Edn version 6.0.1
running on Windows 7 64bit

Re: Project Browser missing
Any chance you were running dual screens at one point?
There was an issue of LC not relocating tools back to a single screen (I think).

Re: Project Browser missing
Yes, dual screening at 2 different locations (home / work)! I'll search for solutions to "not relocating tools back to a single screen" ... do you recall what the fix is? Thanks
Re: Project Browser missing
I don't recall a fix, you should bug report it.
I guess you have to move it before you leave the second screen.

I found The Mysterious Disappearing Tools Palette which looks kind of related, but not.
Re: Project Browser missing
Here, I worked it out, put:
set the loc of stack "revProjectBrowser" to the screenloc
Into the message box
