Hello everyone; I own DataCAD 16 and works with two monitors. Today broke the second monitor, and while I'm waiting to buy a new one, it happens that no longer appears the Layer Manager and also when I use ctrl right to interrogate any entity, no longer show the properties menu of the object; it is as if they were in the broken screen disappeared! My operating system is Windows XP and I have already proceeded to set the screen as a single screen. Can anyone help me while I'm waiting to buy a new monitor?

Close all drawing files and then exit DataCAD. Open "Computer" and then go to the C:\DataCAD 17\Support Files\ folder. Double-click on "dcadwindialogs.gui" to open the file using Notepad. locate and delete the following section (your values will be different):
[LyrMgr] Maximized=0 Left=1610 Top=204 Width=664 Height=530 Buttons Left=1 Text Buttons=1
Save changes, exit the file, and then restart DataCAD. The Layer Manager will now open in the default position, at the center of your primary monitor.
