Yes, thanks to you, BUT: Working for a little while now in LC 8.0 ( lc 1) it happened again:
Script editor window disappeared to location: -25162,-25296 . And this time the preferences file was NEWLY created. It started all well and fine. Then during work - out of a sudden - after some script errors, the SE window disappeared and was not seen again. In my (very simple) logic, the preferences file saves some location, and it may be a wrong location saved from such off-screen-disappearing, but the bug itself hides somewhere else. I also noticed that sometimes it is not possible to even access the script editor - even if it is in the bounds of the screen and potentially be visible - and my "work around" was opening another script editor and then switching the tab of editors to the original script that I am working on. Also then a right-click on a control such as a button will not show anything and not allow to open a script. Is there enough testing done on Windows?
