Save As dialog is invisible, outside of the screen
I ran into this problem with desktop version 1.6.25.
The position of the Save As dialog is remembered but it doesn't check if it is still a valid position with the current screen, so it may end up outside of view.
Scenario:
- Use Mockups on an external screen attached to a latop. Do a "Save As"
- Without quitting Mockups, disconnect the screen
- Try "Save as" again... you won't see the dialog and you are stuck :-(
Work-arounds:
- Luckily "Escape" closes the invisible dialog
- Then you can do just "Save" to avoid losing your brand new work because it picks a default file name for you :-)

Inappropriate?Whoa Laurent, that's bad. And you know what? It's an Adobe AIR bug! I do not / cannot decide the position of that dialog. I'll file a bug with Adobe about this, they'll be pleased! :)

Inappropriate?Laurent, Peldi,
Thank you very much for bringing this issue to AIR team attention!
I am using MockupsForDesktop.air version 1.6.36 and I tried to reproduce the issue on Mac OS 10.5.8 and 10.6 with AIR 2.0 build of 9/29/09 and build 8/06/09 - the one listed in the bug report.
However, I don't see the problem.
Which version of AIR runtime are you using?
May be it is hardware specific. Could you please give me more details about your hardware and OS you are using? If possible, could you provide models of the laptop and the external display, what Mac OS version are you running? It would be good if you could provide a screenshot, so I can see the geometry of "Save" dialog location on the screens.
Thank you,
