Sonar x3 control bar Missing on all projects
started a session a few weeks ago. When x3 producer launched. it did so with out the control bar. It is missing on all projects that I open. It simply doesn't seem to be misplaced, but actually missing from the program. Any ideas on how to get it back without a "Clean Install".

Thanks for the reply  ........Yes Yes, That's the point, it's missing....gone.....not around anymore....control C is checked and toggled -nothing. It is flat missing from the program as far as I can tell. Any ideas on where to find it or how to get it back without a complete clean install; which is going to mess with the midi, effects settings ect etc on all projects.

Are you sure it isn't floating behind another window?
I think you could do that in X3

ya make sure its not behind another window. I f that doesn't seem to be the problem you can try, Performance Options/Visual Effects box and change the setting from "Let Windows choose what's best for my computer" to "Adjust for best appearance".
It might be related to a graphics thing but I don't think so. drawing Wave files are more graphic intensive than the CB in my opinion.

Floating around was my first guess when it went missing, but nothing there. Besides it doesn't matter which project I open; New or older, the control bar is missing. Thanks for the reply and Its 0730 in the am I done for now. Thanks again.

I have also considered a collapsing window ect, but there is no evidence of that, at least that I can find. I have attempted to download X3 Producer with all the virus protection turned off etc..etc....to no avail. I have X2 running now and the CONTROL BAR is THERE and operational as it always was..but go back to X3 and NOTHING. Tech support is horrible to get in contact with; but I have to keep trying, and hope to get this question to them soon....I hope ! I will look at the graphics thing Chuck. Thank you all for the helpful replies. It looks like a complete CLEAN OUT of X3 Producer and a Clean Install is on the horizon; ending with a few years of incomplete projects and work load FLUSHED !! ..................frustrated with this constant bug stuff....new program may be the answer for future.

Tech support probably wont even answer you. Support for X3 stopped a few months back. X3 came out almost 3 years ago. But if your seeing the control bar in X2 and not in X3, im guessing its a corruption issue.

SUCCESS ! It was there all the time! The Control Bar had moved OFF screen to the FAR RIGHT! Various engineers work on their projects at this desk. Apparently someone had accidentally moved it, or forgot they had moved it and never placed it back. WHY ? Who knows! I have since posted a notice and instructed everyone on the use of KEY stroke " C " !!!!
HOW I FOUND IT ! ::::::::::: In a frustrated state, I was waving the mouse arrow back and forth ( Left to Right) on screen quickly....and just threw up my hands and shoved the mouse across the pad, letting go of it at the same time.
THE ON SCREEN ARROW DISAPPEARED OFF SCREEN ON THE RIGHT.
Now really pissed off thinking I had just busted the wireless mouse, I grabbed it, put the batteries back in, and attempted to use it. The Arrow came back on screen from the FAR RIGHT SIDE.
THAT IS WHEN I NOTICED that I could move the arrow quite far off screen and then back again.
I WENT FISHING, what the hell else did I have to lose. I moved off screen in small increments. Starting at the top and estimating how far off screen to right I was, I would click and attempt to drag what might be hiding over there.
Within a few minutes of GHOST DRAGGING and to my COMPLETE SURPRISE, there came my CONTROL BAR on the end of my Cyber Fishing pole!
Holy Crap, how much more embarrassing could this be!! Sorry guys for troubling you. Thank you for keeping me sane for a few weeks!! You saved the Towers life! .....and I get to keep my Christmas money for actual gifts this year!
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR...........:) .....and again Thanks!!!!
