Hi,

I have a laptop at work(running Win XP), which is connected to a docking station and then there is a monitor connected to the dockingstation. That seems to work fine. (running with 2 monitors)

But when I get home and turn my laptop on, start up photoshop (everything is looking fine), opens up a picture and let’s say I want to resize it, the resize dialog box is gone(can’t see it), but it’s there – this is because the laptop/photoshop still thinks that the extra monitor is connected, which it is’nt…

Is there a workaround for this or?

Thanks
/Rico

See the FAQ topic "dialog box is missing?"- that should help.

and if that doesn’t work resetting your prefrences – also in the FAQ – will.
