Right now the preview window won't float or doc at all into the materials tab.
I tried clicking on the UI dots, but they don't seem to do anything.
The manual and "help" text is not useful.
Edit - I attached a screenshot of my current materials ui

Two suggestions:
For Poser 7 on Windows 7 the INI and UI Prefs files are located at:
C:UsersUSER NAMEAppDataRoamingPoser 7
If you delete these files Poser will re-create them on launch.
Also, again using Poser 7, Edit menu, General Preferences select Launch to factory state. That should fix your problem without deleting the AppData files.
Best Wishes,
Rªnce

I think if you use menu Window/Document Window Size, you may be presented with a dialog saying that no sizing can be done while the window is docked and an option to float the preview window. Do that.
Once you have it floating you should be able to dock it back in a sensible way.
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)

You may also find that the docking slider is just all the way to the left or to the right and if you grab over there you can put things back to normal.

Rance01 - Thanks! that was what i was looking for
baginsbill - The problem is that the auto docking is screwing up my UI. it won't accept anything other than horizontal docking, and the Preview window won't dock at all.

In the second tab "Interface"

In addition to what was suggested, after you have it the way you want it, save it to one of the UI dots so you can restore it easily

Thank you, yes I have done that now. I feel like such a noob

The other thing is if you can locate the INI files, you can back them up as well. Better safe that WTF?
Glad you worked things out.

PS: the pose dots information is stored in system files as well (languagedots ?). I back everything up ...
