Docking In Maya 2016 - maya

I accidentally undocked the status line and shelf tabs and can't get them attached to the main window the way they were. I can get them to go to the side of the main animation window, but not on top like they were before. I tired reverting settings and such but that doesn't work.

Sounds like you cannot drop them on the top because there is no longer anything there to drop onto in that panel zone.
You can try right clicking over the double dotted line above one of the other panels and see if toggling the interface items there (which include the shelf and status line) brings the items back.
You can also change the window settings programmatically! by editing the windowPrefs.mel file located in
"User/Documents/maya/maya version/prefs".
Finally you can try changing the user preferences (click the little icon of a guy with a gear on its back left of the timeline or menu: Windows>Settings/Preferences>Preferences) where under "UI Elements" the same toggles are available, as well as opening files without using saved layout settings, etc...

pgadmin 4 3.1 retiling data output panel

In the Query Tool, when trying to raise or lower the border between Query Sql Editor and Data Output Panel it is very common that when you move the mouse over the Data Output panel's header it changes the vertical - horizontal arrow icon to a cross arrow changing Data Output panel from its default tiling to floating
What should I do to return the Data Output panel to its initial tiling mode?
In addition, Data Output panel once in floating window stops showing queries's results, it only shows the messages, I suppose it's 3.1's bug.
My solution so far is to save the query, close it and reopen it to recover its tiling mode
Cursor's disappearance problems have not been corrected in full
What is the best free competitor of pgadmin 4?
In the pgadmin browser, click on the File menu and select reset layout.
Yes, will get all kinds of warnings, but the query tool returns to being useful.
I don't know in PgAdmin 4.3, but in 4.6 I found that way to re-arrange it.
First, right-click on somewhere to Add Panel -> Scratch Pad first to get a panel holder first (when clicking, notice the highlighted light blue space),
then right-click the lower half space to add another panel -> Scratch Pad at the lower half space (when clicking, notice the highlighted light blue space),.
After that, click on the tab and hold to drag and drop to where you want (when clicking, notice the highlighted light blue space).
I have pgadmin 4.15 and I found how to resolve this. On the upper left corner, click on File dropdown and then click on Reset Layout. It will ask to restart the application, click Ok.
No this is not a bug, those panels are meant to be floatable so that user can arrange the view as per their convince.
But yes user should have the option to lock the layout, and I see feature request for locking the layout is already in the pgadmin4 list.
Hopefully, we will get it in the next future release.
Ref: https://redmine.postgresql.org/issues/3155
------ UPDATE -----
Now you can lock the layout in pgAdmin4 (File menu -> Lock layout) option
To reset the panels to default position (File manu -> Reset Layout) option
------ UPDATE-2021 -----
This issue has been fixed, can you please check with pgAdmin4 v5.5 which is released on 15-july-2021.
Long press with left mouse button on title permits you to reposition the panel in layout
reset is also available as an icon on the top right area of the UI
File dropdown >> Reset Layout (reload issue)
this will reload but the changes/query will be lost. Better to store the query somewhere else before resetting layout
I'm still on 4.2.6, and as long as only one of the tabs has floated, I can click on the text "Data Output", and drag it onto the tab bar of the bottom panel. Note that you need to click the text, and not just anywhere in the panel's top bar, it acts as a kind of invisible tab.
If the other tabs (Explain, etc) have also floated I think you need a 'Scratch Pad' or Reset.
Then File, Lock Layout, Prevent Docking if this is never useful for you.
I was able to redock it in pgadmin 4, version 6.0 by dragging the floating window down to the bottom right of the screen. I drug it around down there until it started highlighting docking arrangements for it and it eventually shows a highlight for the original docking position and then you can let go and it'll dock. Not super exact instructions, but once you do it a couple times it's easy to recreate.

UIToolbar at the bottom not working in Retina 4 simulator

I know it sounds a bit odd but perhaps someone has experienced the same too.
If I have a UIToolbar placed at the bottom of a Retina 4 sized xib (548 size) it does not work in the simulator (buttons show no reaction). However if I place it a bit higher (not sure where the threshold is) they work again. ???
My problematic xib looks like this:
As mentioned elsewhere (e.g. iPhone 5 (4") bottom toolbar not responding ) the problem is that even though your view is the full height, the underlying UIWindow isn't, and the underlying UIWindow is involved in your view getting touch events.
If you have a file name something like "MainWindow.xib" in your project:
Open it in Interface Builder.
Select "Window" from the list of objects on the left side.
In the Attributes Inspector pane, click the "Full Screen at Launch" checkbox.
UI elements at the bottom of the screen should now work.
I found the problem being the UIWindow. (perhaps it is only a problem with older projects) As long as the window object it set to the 480 size actions falling out of its size (which can happen on Retina 4) are not recognized.

Silverlight 5 - PivotViewer Details Pane Disappears on a touch screen

We've got a fairly basic implementation of the PivotViewer that we've put on a HP touch screen PC. Everything works as expected - and on the left hand pane you can select options, clear options etc.
The problem is when you select a card, the right hand pane is displayed as expected, but if you choose an item from this right hand pane (although this action works and the screen animates to show the new results) the next time you select an item the right hand pane is blank.
You get this behaviour even when you use the mouse on the touch screen.
Does anyone have any ideas please?
This same implementation works fine on every other PC - just not the touch screen where it is to be deployed!!
Although other samples I downloaded gave the same behaviour on the touch screen I found that a sample showing a custom details pane sorted things out.
I downloaded the sample from here:
http://tonychampion.net/blog/index.php/2011/10/sl5-pivotviewer-custom-detailpanestyle/
It worked much better on the touch screen anyway as I made big buttons on my custom pane, rather than the hyperlinks that were there before.

intermittent bug - DevExpress XtraEditors SimpleButton's text only appears 1st time when mouse is on top of it

pretty weird issue, essentially not replicable with certainty. Several offending buttons are located on top of a tab control's header (not as a tab page child, they are child to the same surface that tab control is child to) in upper right corner, to the right of the righmost page header button. Usually they are fine, but sometimes all these buttons are only visible as button shapes without text. But when I move mouse to them to click, with the mouse over them the text becomes and stays visible.
To be clear, the buttons are always visible and so are certainly "on top of" the tab control in the z order.
What gives?
We have already seen this issue and it is registered in the support center at:
SimpleButton's Text is not visible
We will research why the problem appears and fix it.
