Robert YaBB Newbies Offline Posts: 33	sketch is partially off screen Jun 11th, 2010, 3:43pm   I'm working on a sketch and when I run it, it appears partially outside the screen area.  I can only see the bottom quarter of it.  I don't know how to position the sketch on the screen (I don't even know if it's possible) Can someone help me

Enter to fix the position. Next time you run the sketch, it will be were you moved it.
