Open window is not appearing
I can open a file via "open" -> "recent", the file open window doesn't appear. I am not sure if it is hidden or just not in the front, how do I bring the open window to the front so I can see it?
I am working on windows 8, Filemaker 14 advanced 64 bit installation
Are you saying you have one file open, then try to open another one? If so, you should be able to go to the Window menu and pick the other window from the other file.
Or is it just that you don't know how to get past the new Launch Center window?
Click the Browse button in the lower left corner of this window that is new in FileMaker 14.
The new Launch Center window doesn't appear when I click File --> Open or Ctrl + O
It is almost like the window is somewhere but no where I can see it.
I want to be able to access the New launch Center window but can't, it seems the window could be on another screen but it isn't. I almost need a shortcut key to select the window and move it to my screen so I can view it
Have you been using multiple monitors previously?
In preferences, there's a "reset dialog sizes and positions" button that you might click to see if this resolves the problem.
I tried the reset button both the file open and file open remote windows do not appear?
You may need to reinstall FM, something may have got corrupted and isn't loading correctly. For example FMS13 console will not start if you update Java to version 8, it may be a similar matter with FM.
After restarting Filemaker after it crashed the open box appeared again. I think if you click the reset dialog sizes and positions a filemaker restart is required inorder for it to fully take effect.Thanks PhilModJunk.
