OpenLP display on desktop of Laptop
When I opened the Open LP program on our church laptop, the display had changed. The Service Manager appeared on the left instead of the right, and the Library (normally on the left) will not appear with the Service Manager, which means you can’t prepare the data presentation.) As the presentation had been prepared, we were able to project it without any problems.
I've uninstalled and re-installed OpenLP. The problem of the placement of the Service Manager remains; it is displaying on the left instead of the right. The Library can not be accessed at the same time as the Service Manager, however, it now appears as a tab, which has to be opened in order to access things.
I'd appreciate any help or support to help me get this sorted. I'm not at all tech minded ... just volunteering ;to prepare the data for our small church. I really like OpenLP and have been using it for quite a few years without any huge issues. I can usually troubleshoot and fix any little glitches I encounter. This problem is beyond me. Thank you

Hi, check the manual https://manual.openlp.org/configure_ui.html#change-the-location-of-an-item-in-the-window Also the last chapter about locking the panels. Its applicable to both OpenLP versions 2.4.6 and 2.9.4.
Let us know if it helped. Thanks.
Thank you so much jednou. This has worked. Obviously the panels had not been locked in place. Such a simple fix.
Is there a way to place the Preview window and Live windows in the middle between the Library and the Service Manager? This is where they have always been, but now, they are down the bottom. If I remove the Projector Manager, the Library and the Service Manager move and each take up half of the top two zones.
At the moment the Preview and Live windows are down the bottom of the screen. Not a huge issue, but different to what we had before.
Try: View -> Layout Presets -> Show all
You can move the Library and the Serve around with your mouse, just click and drag on their titles. There are 4 "docks" in OpenLP, one at each edge (top, bottom, left, right). Just drag them to where you want them to be.
