    Can’t restore default screen view

    I absolutely cannot return to the default screen view (memo board tree shown in left pane and notes of current memo board shown in right pane) Somehow I inadvertently clicked something which lost that view and nothing – literally nothing (!) seems to restore it. Help would be appreciated.

    NoteZilla stores data under:
    Windows XP: “C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Conceptworld\NoteZilla\”
    Windows Vista: “C:\Users\\App Data\Roaming\Conceptworld\NoteZilla\”

    1. Exit NoteZilla
    2. Go to the above folder and delete the file layout.xml
    3. Run NoteZilla

    The memoboard tree’s position is reset to the right position.
