i lost my trigger window.
 
I'm using zMUD 6.22
I can't think of a great way to explain my problem, but normally when you try to list your triggers, aliases, etc., you essentially see two windows: one which lets you pick which trigger (for example) to edit or view; and one which lets you actually edit or view the trigger in question.

I appear to have misplaced the former window, and I have failed to relocate it =I can't scroll up to it or resize the window, it is quite literally gone. I used to have the tabs to view / edit the different properties of a trigger, but I fiddled around trying to fix my problem and somehow lost them too =[

Here's a picture of my problem:

Usually you can move your mouse to the bottom of your screen and it will change into a double arrow, with which you can pull you edit window back up. Did you try this already?

Yup, tried it. In any case, I lost the top half so as far as I can tell resizing the bottom wouldn't find it.. This has just got me totally confuzzed =

While it may not be directly related to any changes in 6.22, since 6.22 is a BETA product, you should post this in the BETA Forum, just in case something did change between 6.16 and 6.22. I'll try to take a look at it tonight, since zMUD doesn't exist on this computer. Perhaps there's just a setting that you need to reset to get it back.

I've had it a few times with 6.16 as well, so my bet is it has nothing to do with the beta. Reinstalling always solved it if nothing else did.

Might want to try resetting all windows first, maybe that helps.

Tried that. It does nothing I can see.
I've had this before and I reinstalled, but it's come back =

Here's a general way to fix the problem with any window (and I've tried it for your specific problem too):

Have the window you want to move active.
Hold down alt and hit space.
Type 'm'.
Use the arrow keys to move the window.
Type enter to confirm the move.


Hope that help. =^.^=

I've run into a similar problem myself, and found a resolution in one of these forums. The resolution, posted by a Zmud GURU, was to find a file called either 'setting.dok' or 'settings.dok'. Removed that file, which may have become corrupt, and your windows will likely display with all of their components again. Being that I am not of the guru class, I cannot vouch that this will not reset your window positions, and things of that sort, but I have had to use it several times to recover the BOTTOM half of *my* trigger editing window :)
