I don't know how it happened but somehow my editing tools toolbar has gotten moved in front of the room tabs, so that when I try to select a tool I end up opening the room tab behind it instead. What's more the toolbar heading is wedged underneath poser's main window toolbar so I can't click and drag it away. I've tried adjusting the window size, searching the windows menu for options and rebooting with no success, I just can't find a way to move it. Anyone know how I can get it to move or to reset the toolbars to their default positions? Any help would be appreciated.

Did you try under edit > general preferences > interface > launch to factory state and a restart of Poser. Otherwise in the upper right corner there is a little triangle there you can chose dock or Float for the panes.

There we go, I knew there had to an option like that hidden somewhere. Problem solved, thanks very much. :)

You're welcome
