Rhino 8 UI issues: can't rearrange anything

So. With Pascal gone I have to get used to post stuff here. About time after 18 years as Rhino Power-User.

Hi Developers,
I ran into a problem with the user interface. Its completely broken in the sense that I can’t rearrange panels and toolbars anymore. Layer panel for instance would not snap to the Window edges as is used to. Command line window can not be moved from its current position at all, it is stuck on the top of the screen and can’t be moved anywhere. There are the four little dots where we are supposed to grab the window to move it around, but that doesn’t do anything atm. I would like to send you a short video and the systeminfo dump but I can’t put attachments here? Sure I restarted Rhino as well as the computer. Next I will repair and reinstall if necessary.
best regards,
Michael

Update: Reinstall didn’t fix the issue. This is going to be painful.

Hey @michael_grau,

You should be able to attach items, I’m not sure why you can’t. You can always copy/paste the SystemInfo though.

Can you move anything? It sounds like you can move the layer panel, but if it wasn’t docked already, then I might know why.
Can you check that “Locked Docked Containers” is not checked? If it is, it prevents adjustments of the panels.

Hi Callum,
That was it, Lock Docked Containers was on. I didn’t know that one.
It’s all working again, great relief. Thank you so much!
best!
