In V11, and all previous versions, often windows and palates have portions that are not completely on screen. Usually there is something I can grab or pull to allow me to move the window.
Today I'm having a problem that the Dither control palate is extending up and beyond the upper left corner of the main screen. I can't find a solution to bring it back onscreen to either control, move or collapse it. Even shrinking the main window down and pulling it in doesn't do the trick. It just sits there, with no ability to move or control it. Just a little of the bottom of the small window.
I have dual monitor setup. V11, Windows 7.

Re: Window controls offscreen
For what it's worth..., somewhere on your computer, there is a file with the file extension ".pms" that controls where the Dither window appears. The trick is to find it, and change/repair/replace it.
So, just spit-ballin' in the dark, try:
If this only happens in one Project, open another similar project and then engage Mixer Sharing, then go back to the original Project, save it, okaying the warning about saving when in Mixer Shared mode.
Right-click on the sliver of the Dither window you can to see if you get a pop-up menu where you can select "Reset"?
Try running the Pyramix 11 installer in "Repair" mode, in the hopes that it will overwrite the file which controls where the Dither window appears.
Try restarting the computer with only one monitor active, instead of two, and then booting up Pyramix. This might cause all your remembered window positions to be re-jigged. If no joy, try restarting it with only the "other" monitor.
Open the Settings to Application > Desktop Layout, and in the lower right corner, under "Presets", save your current setting (as a backup), to a location you'll remember, and then switch to one of the Merging supplied presets to see if the location of the Dither window changes.

Re: Window controls offscreen
Thanks Frank,
As you can imagine, I've tried most of those things. The bug however must be in some file specific to this project. Moving a UI specific setting out of the C drive did no good.
This is kind of a minor project- a busy time thing in this slow pandemic period. I don't need to change the dither settings, so I can live with it, however I was hoping to find a magic- coalesce all windows control, somewhere.
Managing window locations is not a strong suit in Pyramix. Quite a few bugs.
