Properties box too long

Properties box is really long (horizontally). (see attachment)

When I select an  object, then  right mouse and pick "Properties" the box containing the different things to change is so long it runs off my screen and goes into my 2nd monitor.

Any way to fix this?

Go over the the Second monitor, hover the Mouse over the Right edge until you see the left-rght arrow and drag.

Save your workspace.

Most all dialog boxes can be resized in this way.

I know what you mean and I've tried this, but nothing happens
What I mean is when I hover over the right side of the box, I never get the option to re-size the box.

Set LOCKUI to 0.

Does that allow you to change the Dialog box size?

You mean it's too wide: if LOCKUI doesn't let you resize it, then UNDOCK the palette, resize it like you do all other WIndows pop-ups, then dock it back.

Remember to actively save your current workspace afterwards.

Didn't work. Properties box still fill by entire screen when I try to use Autohide.

Autohide only works of your cursor moves away from it completely: why not also dock it left or right as well and see if that helps (found in the same right-click menu as Autohide).
