Dialog box location

[Anonymous]

When I upgraded to LT 2020 and I open an Attribute Edit dialog box it is located at the bottom center of the display.  I am using an extended display with 4K and the laptop screen at 1080 and cannot or do not want to adjust both displays to the same resolution.

Is there a way to open the dialog box near the center of the screen as I have several window open and it gets lost and the OK or APPLY button is just above the bottom edge of the screen.

Thanks

Which exact command is that? ATTEDIT or something else?

It is when I double click a block attribute and the dialog box indicates Enhanced Attribute Editor.

The bottom dark line is the task bar

Freeze? Or by chance is that pop-up just off screen? Try this method to get it back into focus https://knowledge.autodesk.com/search-result/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/Dialog-window-does-not-d...

Ensure you are running LT2020.1.2 update: ABOUT command will confirm.

Then if all the above does not help, start GRAPHICSCONFIG command then turn off hardware accelerationas a test and try it again.

Maybe I am not understanding the question but if I double click a attribute to get the dialog box, I can left click on the top of the box and drag it to where I want it. The next time I open it, it is still where I dragged it too the last time I had it open.

I seem to remember that too that it would stay where you put it. It is not a show stopper and when I get back to my office where there is a bit different monitor configuration I will see if it does the same thing.

At lease I know where to look for it instead of attempting to open a dozen dialog boxes.

Reconfigured the graphics by turning off hardware accelerations and the only thing that appeared to change is if I open a dialog box it would always open at the bottom of the monitor screen, even off the open AutoCAD LT window.  I can move it up on the screen to make the edits and changes and the next time I open it, it is in vertical alignment but still with the dialog box bottom touching the task bar.

Also the version is 2020.1.2 and there is a notification from Autodesk that there is an update available so may try to install that later today.

Thank you all for replying as I have decided that it is what is and now that I know where it will open, going forward.
