I have used the Across Search & Replace function on another screen while working on 2 screens. When I switched to the laptop screen only, the Search & Replace window is outside the boundaries of the screen and I cannot move it back to the screen. The usual "shift+right mouse button + moving the window with arrows" trick doesn't work because there is only one icon window visible for Across. Does anyone have a solution for this? Thank you.

Did you unplug the 2nd screen? Sep 27, 2017

I had a similar problem with another program and unplugging the 2nd screen rather than just turning it off solved the issue.

Not in Across Sep 27, 2017

Thank you for this suggestion. It does work for other programs but not for Across - the only thing that works is moving the S&R window from the second screen to the main screen before closing the software. But if you forgot to do it while leaving the office and you're at home without a second screen, you're grounded... Unless there is another solution.
