toolbar moving

Post by scorp589 »

Never had this problem in 10.5. In 11 when ever I change from drawing to modeling, or clipart, the toolbar moves off to the left side of the page. I have to drag it back to use it. I am using vcarve desktop.

When the tab is open click the pin (auto hide) at the top right to pin the tab open. That should fix it if I understand the issue correctly.

How have you got it set in the software options? The tabs now appear towards the top & run vertically rather than horizontaly as they did before, try selecting, edit & options & on the tab layout select bottom :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ah think Adrian is right on this, I have probably miss read the post :oops: :oops:

It's not moving completely off the page. Only a third of the way. The auto hide doesn't seem to make a difference.

Have you got it docked to the main window? It may have detached. Try clicking and holding the mouse button down on the top of the tab where it says Drawing etc. You can then drag it around. When it gets near to the left or right side it should snap back into place.

It doesn't seem to lock anywhere. Now it has changed to a toolbar half the height of the rest of the screen.
If I close and restart the program it is ok until I try changing to a different tab. I have tried the tabs on the side
and on the bottom.

A screenshot would prove invaluable.

I reloaded a copy of v11 and seems to have taken care of the problem.
