Repository & Palette fill screen, DS Designer

Post by timlind53 »

Somehow I have maximized my palette & repository windows within the DataStage Designer tool. They cover up my server job grid. I can close them but I can't resize them. When the palette is enabled that's the only window I can see. When the repository is enabled that is the only window I can see. [:(!]

Clicking the Window menu then the Cascade option doesn't work nor can I drag a corner to resize the windows.

How can I get back to my three pane view within DataStage Designer (repository, server job grid, palette)? Uninstalling and re-installing is not a good answer.

Client OS: Windows 2000 Professional
DataStage: Version 5.2

Can you grab and drag the repository window around?

Another option is to delete the registry key(s) for Designer. It will return Designer to the default state. Delete the folder and all underneath: HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareAscential SoftwareDSDesign

Excellent! Thank you Myles!

Deleting the registry key did the trick. Everything works fine now. Thanks again.

Hi Myles,

Can you provide the full path in the registry of the folder or file which needs to be deleted.

Thanks in anticipation.
