Positioning

The Preview window can be re-positioned in any screen quarter and this position will be retained. Please note this is a fixed position in each quarter. To do this, click and hold anywhere along the Preview window's header bar then drag and drop the the mouse cursor into the screen quarter where the window should appear.
