Good Evening

Somehow I have managed to unattach the Tag Panel which I had previously showing as a sidebar **connected** to the main MP3Tag window.

When I go to View\_Tag Panel on the Menu it brings up a separate Tag Panel in it's own window but this is a panel that can't be re-sized nor can I find an instruction to reconnect it to the main Window.

I have gone into utils and reloaded the Sidebar .ini file but to no avail.

Any suggestions/fixes would be gratefully received.

Have good weekend  
Iain

> I think you have to do some mouse gymnastics now and grab the floating panel at the top edge of the window and drag it into the main MP3tag window until you see an empty rectangle. If that rectangle is in the correct position, release the mouse button.

Thank you for taking the time to reply - much appreciated.  
However I have not been able to make the mouse gymnastics work.  
Again, thank you.

Then you have to tell us which of the steps was not successful:

- grab the floating panel at the top edge of the window
- drag it into the main MP3tag window until you see an empty rectangle.
- When that rectangle is in the correct position, release the mouse button
