Show measurement window does not open

Hi,

When I try to use the show measurement tool in APD+ free physical viewer in Win10, the show measurement window does not open. I am able to get the show element window to open but no luck with the show measurement window. I tried deleting the .geo file in my pcbenv directory but no luck. Any suggestions??

FYI..I just did a fresh install of Allegro IC Packaging 2020 APD+ Free Physical Viewer 17.4-2019 S008 [7/14/2020] Windows SPB 64-bit Edition

did you use dual monitors previously?

locate your pcbenv folder and delete the allegro.geo file to see if the gui comes back.

the gui might still be opening on the second screen.

you can try windows+p to see if "pc screen only" is selected

This worked for me; however, I only have one screen now. How do I set it so I have duplicate screens and can use measure and other things in 17.4?

Thanks,
