If you attempt to open an edit/view attributes dialog box and it doesn’t show up on your active monitor, most likely the cause is a dual-monitor setup was used in one location or during one session, then in another session/location one of the monitors is missing from the configuration. In the software, if you move an attribute dialog then close it, the software remembers where that dialog was and the next time you load that attribute dialog it may open in the same location even if it’s not present. Some fixes have been implemented when that location monitor is no longer active, but sometimes the attribute dialog will still open off-screen. Follow these steps to bring the attribute dialog box to the active monitor:

1. After you open and Attribute Review or Edit for a feature and do not see the attribute dialog
2. Press Alt-Space, then M (for Move)
1. This is a windows keystroke function to put the window into move
3. After Alt-Space, M, then use the arrow keys to move the window
1. If you think the window may be to the left where your other monitor was in a previous session location, hold down the Right Arrow key until the window moves into view on the active monitor
2. Similary, if you think the window may be to the right, hold down the Left Arrow key until the window moves into view on the active monitor
