Here I go again, another problem. I now find that my one panel that has the
document, text, object size, etc. panel is not showing, the other two do. Have
no idea what happened. Tried to hide and un-hide all panels to no avail. I read
the other threads about toolbars missing, but this is a panel and only 1 is now
missing. Does anyone have an idea how I can get this to reappear? :disgust;

Panel positions are stored in the FH preferences file. Instructions for
finding and deleting it are here (bottom section of page).

Once you have your preferences set as you like them, save a copy of the
preferences file as a backup. That way you don't lose all your custom
settings if you need to replace a corrupted preferences file.

You may have simply closed it by hitting a key command. If you are
referring to the Object Inspector it's default key command is "cmd I" if
it is grouped with other inspectors the whole group will
appear/disappear with the key command. You can also turn them on and off
through the Window > Inspectors menu.

Rich,

Bingo! Somehow, it must have been closed, your window/inspector setting
brought it back. Thank you very much, I thought I even looked everywhere to
find a setting like this, but somehow missed it too. I think I have a bad case
of hard drive overload (my brain)!

I'm glad Rich found the source of your problem. It may be that your
Inspector panel group was hidden the last time you quit FH.

On a related issue, the View>Panels command is a toggle, but it gets
confused if FHMX is quit when panels are hidden.

1. Hide Panels via the View menu (or keyboard shortcut)
2. Quit FHMX.
3. Relaunch FHMX. Panels are not displayed.
4. Select Panels in the View menu. The panels will not show.

You have to go to the Window menu and enable each panel again.
