window within program stuck at corner

Guys, please add moving bars on 2 ends of windows within the program this is a horrible error on your part because the windows always get pulled to 1 end of the screen making windows unmovable without switching the orientation of your screens. This is torture.

Regards.

If you are referring to the window scroll bars, see:

I will also suggest Maximizing the application.

Hi Valentin,

sorry but that isn't the issue, if you open windows such as the Xref window or layer properties

This matter has been addressed where Autodesk suggested working around the problem rather than mitigating it by adding handlebars on opposite ends of the windows on Xref and such

@Anonymous ,

Your explanation is unclear. As @pendean said, post a screenshot to provide you a better solution.

If you are referring to the handles on the Xref or Layers, this could be solved by drawing it to one side or the other (or docking).

Other options on its properties:

If they are unmovable, then try to adjust the "Dock User Interface" setting:

the handlebar is on the RHS and you can only move the window using the handlebar. many times when opening one of these windows the bar will be out of the screen making me unable to move it or access the setting to change the side which its docked. is there a way to have bars on both the LHS and RHS and is there another place where the docking side can be changed other than on the bar?

There are various solutions from Autodesk Support on this topic:

Also, reload your profile.

Worse case:

Reset AutoCAD to default

Next time lock your User Interface:
