While using a small computer the dialog box of the component windows or even some other user forms get out of the screen and cannot be resized.
This is very troublesome when you are having a small screen or a laptop. Upon clicking any component or feature all you see is the middle part of the user form and you wonder how you could apply, modify or cancel the operation.
Since these options are not visible, you won't be able to click them. Now there are a couple of workarounds that could be implemented like:
Accelerator keys
Typically all programs have some form of acceleration to enable faster processing by keyboard inputs like just click Alt and you'll see that some letters in the user form get underlined. Then just typing that letter will simulate a click action of the same button.
In Tekla, you can use
Alt + M as a shortcut to modify,
Alt + A to apply
Alt + C to cancel
Alt + O for okay
ALT+SPACE+M
This combination allows you to activate the move windows feature, you can use the arrow keys from your keyboard.
Screen controller plugin
Tekla plugin to move the user forms so that the buttons are in view. It can be downloaded from the Tekla Warehouse using this link
This video provides a tutorial on how to use the tool
