It should appear in front of the main window - which does not show up on your system. I once have been reported the same problem with a much earlier version of JavE. The problem was that the main window had a position outside of the screen and so was not visible. I think this was caused by the window manager, that is responsible for positioning windows when they show up. However once JavE has been started and exited, it saves its size and position to a file called jave.ini located in the JavE program folder. You can look there for the following lines: [editor] ypos=50 xpos=30 height=588 width=720 When there are very huge values for xpos or ypos or negative values, the main window is positioned outside of the screen. When there is no jave.ini yet, you can create it and put the lines above inside. Maybe it then will show up correct. You can also try to change your window manager - on linux systems it should be possible to switch between them easily. If it still does not work I have no idea about what goes wrong. What JRE do you use, the new 1.4 or 1.3? Regards, Markus -- \-/ http://www.jave.de O_< Get JavE4.0 now! \-/ J|a|v|E /| J|a|v|E /-\ Ascii-Art for eyeryone / \ - for free! /-\
