Roadway Template Point Property Dialog is Hidden

Does anyone know the solution to this issue?  Seriously frustrating!  I'm tired of crashing OR, loosing all my work and redoing it. 

Did you ever find a way out of this situation.  I'm about to crash out of my drawing because I can see no other way.

*Better than some Bentley products, still quite poor for general software programming. If you are doing anything structural OpenBridge is the best of the new Bentley packages I've used yet, minimal crashes and glitches. Still not Autodesk standard, but better than ORD which is pretty troublesome I find.

I wouldn't get too excited. It has been a few months since I was working intensively on templates but it was happening in ORD Connect Edition.

I've tried to reproduce this issue and as silly as it may sound asking, have you tried gaining focus back to the "Create Template" or "Edit Template" main dialog?  The Point Properties dialog is dependent on that having regained focus.  The Alt-Tab display should see either of those two... but as you mentioned, not the Point Properties.   

yes

Yep, this is the problem, it is impossible to regain control of that tab. Just started on roadway corridors again after enjoying life slightly while using OpenBridge, and first template I had to modify from a standard software supplied to my needs, and when checking details on a PDF for use in the template the f&%*ing window disappears and I lose ten minutes work. Thanks Bentley, you're all over your poorly designed software... most companies would be embarrassed to rely on users to find workarounds and generally avoid these sort of problems - typically you don't build a feature into the software that contains trapdoors to work losses. Not Bentley though. How have they gotten this far? They are the Funcom of CAD software.
