Finding offscreen windows
I blogged ages ago about how I tend to organise my IT.... that is a portable hard drive with as many apps on it as possible so that my entire IT "ecosystem" is portable.
One small, but irritating, problem has been when moving from a multiple to single monitor setup. Many apps remember the screen coordinates of any windows when they last shut down. That means when starting on a single monitor they are off-screen. One "hack" is to hit Alt-space which brings up the window menu, then "M" which allows you to use the arrow keys to move the window. There are some apps which just don't allow you to do this.... so Force Window Visible is a nice simple (portable) app to allow you to reset app window coordinates. Does what it does on the box!
