Suddenly "Pan & Crop" button does nothing

I have spent over 2 hours researching this to no avail. User for between 10 and 20 years. Still on Vegas 13. Suddenly today clicking on the Pan & Crop button does NOTHING. Lights up briefly, but no window. I've been using it earlier today for a couple of hours and now nothing works. The buttons are still on each clip but NONE of my projects work using it. Single monitor, so don't see that the window has gone "off-screen" (although fuzzy on how to check that out). It just plain doesn't work any more. VERY frustrated, but guessing there is a "simple" solution. Thanks in advance for your help.

Before you do a reset (which resets everything) look to see if has docked with another window. That can happen easily if you are dragging it to get out of your way on a single screen.

Thanks, guys--I appreciate the quick response. Turns out the window was hiding under my status bar at the bottom of my screen. Sigh... Back to up an running.

Sorry for inadvertently not following etiquette--and again I DO appreciate the quick responses. I did solve the problem prior to coming back here and seeing the posts, so initially put my solution as "The Solution"--but have changed that, since DMT3 also makes reference to it.
