DRAFTSIGHT 2019 WINDOW SIZE RESOLUTION FIX LICENSE

Upon starting DraftSight back up, the license agreement needs accepting and everything was back in default location and accessible. To get back up and running, we decided to reset DraftSight by closing the application and renaming the DraftSight user configuration folder located in:Ĭ:UsersAppDataRoamingDraftSight_old Disconnecting the external monitors or using the Windows key + P to cycle though the Multiple Display options would not bring the panel back to the user interface. Yet in the image below, the Properties tab is missing within the red highlighted window. All settings within DraftSight stated it was enabled. Try as we might, we were not able to retrieve the missing panel though conventional means. You can see why the customer wanted the panel back. The missing panel was Properties, shown in the default orientation on the right side, which contains many useful tools and information about selected entities. Upon moving the computer from one location to another, a user interface panel in DraftSight was accidently set to floating and then “lost” on one of the external screens. I was recently working with a customer in a similar situation, three monitors at home and two at the office. Likely, you are like me and moving your laptop from one location to another and neither location has an identical hardware setup. With the new year comes more of the same, most of us are still working remote a majority of the time.

Happy New Year! Even though it is the third week of January.
