Re: Outline view missing

Buck, that's very helpful, and I think I'm following your hints so after opening
the Window context menu, I press M (I'm like really excited now) and then
press an arrow key, which moves "the window", but not the outline window,
or maybe it is moving the outline, but also the "whole RDi application" ?
Seems Outline view is "associated" with and "indistinguishable from" the
"RDi application" ?
Thank you for your clear instruction, seems I'm going to need to follow
Edmund's lead and create a new Perspective . . .

Not sure what you mean by "cursor around", but pressing the Tab key
after left-clicking Outline on the Ctrl-F7 window just moves my cursor
within the Lpex edit window . . .

Sorry. 'Cursor around' means I press the arrow keys on the keyboard.

I press and hold Ctrl. Then press F7; keeping Ctrl held down. Now I use the cursor arrow keys to move to the view I want to see, and press Enter.

If I've managed to tear a view off the perspective and throw it totally off screen, I won't be able to see it, but that view has focus. All I need to do now is to move it onto the screen.

Alt-Space brings up the Windows context menu for the view's window, the letter M will select 'move this window'. Now, pressing the cursor arrow keys will physically move the window around the screen. Or, in my example, onto the screen from off the edge.
