problem with script pop up window

ssweete

when i run a script i got a pop up window shows up, but the bottom half where the ok button is, is below my task bar even after i remove the bar. and the window is not resizable..........is there a way to fix what size the pop up window displays.

Can you not just drag the popup window by holding left click on the title bar and dragging?

If the buttons are off the bottom of the screen the title bar is probably off the top. Pressing the Tab button should move the highlight to the needed button, even if you can't see it, so if you know how the dialogue should work that may be a work around. What script is it, and what resolution is your screen?

the top title bar is there, but the only option it has is to close it no resize, you can not grab the sides nor the corner and resize it.
and it wont let you lift it upwards til the title bar disappears to get to the bottom of the window either....lol
is there a hot key? that will let me resize it?
its the script for the genesis lie add wrinkles and age ect...

All windows can be dragged around your screen, so if you left click and hold it on the title bar you should be able to drag it to the top of your screen, and hopefully that will let you at the buttons at the bottom.

This is an issue I've had with scripts and plugins for years, even some of the save functions in DS3 gave me this problem, and it's all down to them being designed on a much larger screen resolution that mine (1360 x 768).

I do believe Zev0 said the Size of the popup was needed and they were sorry if users had issues. I can Left click hold the TOP bar and move it so I'm baffled as to why your not able too.

When you have all your options et press tab until the outline indication the active control is around the last control (that will be the check box if the option is off or the radio button underneath it if not), then press the tab key once to move to the Process button and then the space bar to push the button.

I faced the same problem with the overlay scrip pop up window being designed at a very large window size without the possibility of resizing the popup window , I could not see the bottom of the screen and the proceed button and the cancel ware off screen with no way to showing them .

and since I am using a 15" laptop < my max screen resolution was 1200X800 , and I have to admit , it is very strange why Zev0 insists that the huge size for the popup windows was needed while it was clear to everyone that the window doesn't have that much fields in it, and every single GUI designer know that such a screen should be made to lech than one third of this size and it would still be too big ( this not only the diffuse setting tab, but also apply s to the displacement/bump setting tab)
trying to move the window to the top of the screen would not do much help , and I believe Zev0, and/or DraagonStorm should reconsider (SORRY IF USERS HAVE THIS ISSUE) specially when they are dealing with paying customers and redesign the layout of their script popup window

anyway , I fiddled around to try to find a solution for this problem by trying to maximize the resolution of my laptop screen with no help at all ( all my attempts to super-size the resolution of my screen by override the windows laptop screen size safety registry entry "Display1_DownScalingSupported" to {1} instead of {0} ended up with very bad results )
but I found a solution to extend the size of the desktop without effecting the actual resolution of the screen that allows me to actually see the rest of the popup window
it is a freeware tool that allows you to maximize the viewing area of your screen and use shortcuts ( CRTL+SHIFT with arrow key to move your viewable screen up or down to see the remaining of the popup window
the free too is called "Infinite Screen & Virtual Display Manager"
you can google it , it would probably the first on the result list
download the tool and run it directly without the need to install it at all ( as far as I know it is a clean tool with no bugs or viruses or male wares , at least non that my McAfee or AVG antivirus can detect
