OrCAD Capture 17.2.051 "Find Window" Freezes and does not Move

ctocci

Folks,

Everything working fine, but when I use the Find function in an OrCAD schematic capture session, the Find window come up OK, but it sometimes comes up with the part I was looking for, but the window is frozen in the middle of my schematic window.  I can continue to "find" things using the Find function, but the Find window cannot be moved out of the way and the title bar on the top of the Find window is missing.  Finally, the only way to get the Find function out of the schematic window is to completely close the OrCAD session and restart.

I have had this issue before, but it seems more pronounced now with ISR 051 than previous ISRs.

Thoughts??

    Folks,

    Got around the problem by unchecking "Search ToolBar" box in the Preferences => Miscellaneous tab menu.  Now, using the older Ctrl-F keystroke with the simple dialog window that used to popup.  That works as always and no issues, just not as convenient when searching for multiple components or nets with wildcards.  Must be something to do with the scripts they use not working with my system (W7, SP1).
