It's not your fault. You didn't do anything wrong. Sometimes the computer and the board miscommunicate. Like maybe the computer didn't do the dishes, but the board wanted him to want to do the dishes. It happens.
This is what you need to do:
1. Take a deep breath.
2. Press Ctrl + J
3. Choose the Layout Tab
4. To get your Main Toolbar back: Next to Main Toolbox, click the arrow and choose Dock Top (really any option will do). Your toolbox will appear docked across the top of the screen. Then you can go back and choose Floating. That should appear they way it was meant to be.
5. To get your Top Menu back: Next to Menubar make sure it is labeled Dock Top and next to that click the box that says Visible.
Click Done and everything should be back to normal. (Insert sigh of relief here.)
Would if Control J doesn't work, and you can't get to the layout tab?
ReplyDeleteIf Ctrl + J isn't bringing up the "edit profiles" menu (the first tab is "layout" so you shouldn't really have to choose it.) then there could be something wrong with your screen resolution that is sending this menu off your screen. Try adjusting your screen resolution smaller so everything will fit on your screen. Sometimes plugging into a board will throw your screen resolution off. You might also try refreshing your screen using Fn + F8. There are three cycles your screen can refresh through. Always wait a few seconds to let it adjust before trying to refresh again. Otherwise, Ctrl + J should always bring something up.
