selection tree disappeared

[vinnygolfer]

i mistakenly closed the seletion tree on the left of the screen. and now it is not functioning in any navisworks file at all. the button is available, but it will not show up.

Try going to the View tab, last panel Workspace and pick the Windows button, select the Selection Tree. Or try Load Workspace: Extended.
When you say the SelectionTree button is available, does it have a blue background to it or grey? If blue, then that would imply that the Selection Tree palette is "somewhere" and maybe is off screen, so try changing your resolution to as low as you can or the opposite to as large as you can (or both).

Vinny,

I am having the same problem, I have adjusted my resolution with no help. I believe it has "floated" off, but cannot find it. I have run a "repair" and re-installed Navis to try to bring it into a viewable area with no luck, PLEASE HELP!

did you use an extended desktop monitor before? the selection tree window might be in that 'monitro'....or try the safe mode workspace..

I'm with jca10aps on this one.. Even if you didn't have a second monitor, sometimes hooking one up will allow you to find it.

There's also some trickery you can do with keys that might bring it back in but, I'd have to google that. Something along the lines of finding lost dialog boxes..

On a side note, the 'repair' doesn't work that often. As for a re-install, unless you're doing a clean uninstall, you're not going to get much better results. Clean uninstall pretty much involves deleting everything our of your registry that has navis in the name. It takes a good hour to do.. Believe me, been there, done that, and again, and again, and again on a few computers..

Update: I just Googled myself. haha.. There's a thread in this forum on this same issue. http://forums.augi.com/showthread.ph...og-Box-Missing
