Missing Main Extrusion Dialog Box

[Hank_Venture]

Hello,

Every time I select Extrude from the ribbon I am only presented with the mini-toolbar. I have tried the solution of Alt+Space Bar, then M, then the arrow keys. How do I find the main dialog box? Thank you.

Are you running dual monitors?

Have you changed monitor resolution or spread Inventor across monitors?

Could you take a snapshot of what you are seeing? Is is possible the dialog is in collapsed state (do you see a small horizontal bar saying Extrude)?

Thanks!

Thanks for the fast reply guys, I spent way too much time trying to find the solution myself. I am using two monitors, and I tried extending Inventor accross two screens as well as changing the resolution to no avail. However, I went back to one screen and sure enough there was the main dialog box in the corner of the screen.  I simply moved it to a more accessabile position. Now, after returning to two screens, I the main box is back. Thanks!

Hi Hank_Venture,

If you have this issue in the future or with another dialog box, you can use this solution to get it back:

I just got I MIGHT have rearranged my monitors.

Which was the deal, it simply wasn´t within the

visible area.

Changing the position, dragging the window, and

changing the monitors back again did it for me.

I think there should be an option to restore the

window positions...

Harrrrr
