Hi all,
When I had the same problem some months ago (in an installation
using Bibledit for Linux in Xubuntu--part of SIL's Low Power
Computing initiative called BALSA), somebody suggested using the ALT
key. But in that version/system, this does not grab the active
window and move it--it rather grabs the whole main Bibledit window,
which doesn't do any good. I tried just now (on the same system) the
Alt F3 plus M (in various configurations) but none of this worked
either.
A fellow user suggested the solution of editing the configuration
file (which I sent separately), but Teus's solution of Control-M to
close the window, and then reopen it; this works nicely (in my
version at least) and is simpler than editing the configuration file
and has the great advantage can be implemented by a local typist.

Are you running in windows? If so you can just right
click the window's button on the taskbar, choose move and then use
the arrow keys and/or the mouse to bring it back on screen. Press
enter to set the position.
If you are in ubuntu (and perhaps other flavors) and if you
can see any part of the window then hold the ALT key and click
inside the window that you can see. Then you can drag the window
anywhere. If you can't see the window at all then click then
make sure that is the active window in the taskbar, press Alt+F3
then M, then use the arrow keys to move it.

Greetings,
Today one of our translators moved one of his windows up
beyond the menu bar and we weren't able to find a way to be
able to grab it and move it back down again. It sounds like
a really silly problem now that I write this but not having
control over the window was really bothersome.
Thanks for any help,
Tim
