    HI Guys.
    Can anyone help with a strange issue that has occurred.
    In After effects, somehow the minimize, maximize and close buttons that live top right have disappeared, and I cant set them back. Ive tried workspace adjustments etc but no good. There isnt any more image but off the screens view as the mouse stps at screen edges.
    Its AE 7.0 on a pc wit xp pro sp2

    Any ideas
    Thanks
    Peter

    I recall, recently, someone suggesting to temporarily reset your monitor settings.

    I’m not sure how it works on Windows. On Mac you can click Cmd+\, so maybe you can try Ctl+\

    “There isnt any more image but off the screens view as the mouse stps at screen edges.”

    That doesn’t make much sense but I THINK you’re saying that you’ve somehow moved the AE window up too far so that you can’t see the buttons or get to them with the mouse. If that’s the case then try removing your preferences file and restarting, it should go back to the default workspace and everything. Save the file in case that doesn’t work so you can restore it.
