Stupid, but... (Event pan/crop screen gone)

I have somehow dragged my Event pan/crop screen to beneath Vegas (Pro 9). Now, when I try to open it again, it opens somewhere under the bottom of my monitor, if that makes any sense to you.

This happens to all my projects now! There must be a simple way to get it back visible again.

But how?

You can close all of your other docked windowns be selecting View and then unchecking them, by clicking the X in each upper left corner. Then after you drag the Pan/Crop window back where you want it, you can re-enable the other windows.

Thanks, but this does not work. It´s not docked.

Tried rebooting and preferences Default all as well.

This is crazy! I´m working on Windows 7 BTW.

*** Update: I just cracked it! I moved the Windows Task bar to the top of my screen. The Pan/crop screen was hiding behind it!

Did you try holding Ctrl+Shift while starting Vegas to reset all user settings?

If that doesn't work or seems overkill, you can use a script:

using System;

using System.Runtime.InteropServices;



class EntryPoint

{

    [DllImport("user32.dll")]

    static extern IntPtr FindWindow(string lpClassName, string lpWindowName);



    [DllImport("user32.dll")]

    static extern bool SetWindowPos(IntPtr hWnd, IntPtr hWndInsertAfter,

        int X, int Y, int cx, int cy, uint uFlags);



    public void FromVegas(Sony.Vegas.Vegas vegas)

    {

        SetWindowPos(FindWindow("Vegas.Class.Doc", null),

            IntPtr.Zero, 0, 0, 0, 0, 5);

    }

}

Set your Windows taskbar to Auto Hide and then look for it.
