Dialog box missing

[McCray.jensenPEYLG]

It seems one of my dialog boxes is missing. While trying to add a visibility state no dialog box shows up and it will not allow to me add additional visibility states.

Ive tried going into settings > options > system > hidden message settings, but that didnt seem to help.

Ive reset my computer and autocad several times.

Hi @McCray.jensenPEYLG 

I assume the visibility dialog box is stuck in another screen which is not visible.  Try this: after clicking on visibility states 

• Press ALT+Spacebar key (let go)
• Press M key (which means move the current window)
• Press either the left or right arrow key (on keyboard)
• Move the mouse. (If you have a window or dialog off the screen it will trap itself to the mouse pointer thus allowing you to place the window on the correct monitor)

Hope this helps 🙂

I had looked all over both my monitors, but yes, this was the problem. Thank you very much!

I currently have this problem with the rename & renumber dialog box on sheet set. I have followed these steps a few times and still do not have success, it seems to be attaching to an invisible dialog box that I can move around but do not see regardless of location or screen

I know a few folks in my office that have had this problem with various dialog boxes, it usually involves reinstaling CAD and resetting this profiles which is...annoying

Thanks! This helps.

I have to resize my AutoCAD window to smaller size first.

alt-spacerbar+M+ arrow doesn't work for me. i just disconnect outside monitors with laptop. then the dialog shows. then connect outside monitors again.
