Why won't my Task Pane appear? 1

[MMike1]

I've got my Toolbox and toolbox browser add-ins selected. The side menu is there. But when I click on my Design Library button nothing happens.

I know it's some stupid little thing I'm not doing, but I can't get it to work. I've never had this problem before though.

Thanks.....again....

It doesn't appear when I restart start SWx either. I've gone throught Help quite thoroughly. It just says it's supposed to appear when I start up. This is really pissing me off.

I had that same problem and had to clear my regestry and re-install SW.

Oh awesome. I LOVE reinstalling.

I just discovered that I can get it to work if I undock the window. Then I can get to my parts. BUt if I click on the arrows to expand and collapse the task pane, nothing happens.....other than the little arrows changing direction.

Make sure you have paths added in the file\Locations or nothing will appear under your Design library.

??

Where? In tools>option>system options?

I can get to my parts. (by undocking the task pane) I just can't get the window to expand if it is docked.

Then try this instead of reinstalling - faq559-507

Er....um uh... it appears that I had resized the window by dragging it all the way over to the edge. So it was opening, but I had resized it to essentially nothing, so I couldn't see it. I must have grabbed the edge while I was hastily moving another window or something.

I TOLD you I was doing something stupid!

Another waste of bandwidth eh?
