Inventor Tips and Tricks: Missing Browser Bar

Maybe it was something you said, maybe it was something you didn't say.  But it has happened, your Browser Bar (the area of your model history) has run away.  Before you start plastering milk cartons, check out the User Interface fly out.  This is located on the View Tab --> Windows Panel.

 

The most common reason you lose your browser isn't neglect or verbal abuse to your computer, but perhaps a small little box that inadvertently gets picked if you have had too much coffee today and find yourself clicking on your screen a little too wildly.

Are you using a dual screen setup? If so, try to adjust your windows settings to be only one screen and see if it shows up.

[Ady]

THANKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[T Rose]

same thing. Did you ever find a solution? I have a student who lost the browser box, and it already is checked in the user interface under view. Can you tell me how to regain it? I appreciate any help. I've tried unchecking it and rechecking it, but it doesn't work.

[Jason]

Thanks Pal such a help!

[Rémi Dugrain]

Same for me.

I use a dual screen, but one had a failure.
No way to get the browser back. I checked, unchecked in UI, restarted Inventor, rebooted the computer, reset all options and customization, without success.

Any solution?

Thank you in advance!
