    Default dual monitor problem

    I have been using dual monitors with Revit for awhile now and am having issues opening dialogue boxes such as "load family". For some reason it does not appear on either monitor, I just end up having to press ESC to close the dialogue box, wherever it is (somewhere off the monitors I'm assuming). I have the monitors set up to be "dualview" so the left monitor is the primary display and has the start menu. Any idea how to fix this so that dialogue boxes will show up?

    Your display control panel (ati/nvidia) probably has a "prevent windows from opening off-screen" setting.

    Tech support just helped solve the problem... Alt+Shift+Space+M allows you to use the arrow keys and move the window back to the monitor screen.

    Actually, Shift is not required.
