easythreads Organizer Module

 

I open easythreads and I can't see the Available Threads pane on the left side, and the Links pane on the right is missing, too. What should I do?

 

The Available Threads pane and the Links pane are just hiding from you! To fix this, first check to see if the Available Threads Pane is set to be displayed. To do this, select the View menu and you should see 3 menu items; Available Threads, My Inventory and My Favorites. If the Available Threads menu item does not have a check next to it, then the Available Threads pane has been closed. To open the Available Threads pane, select the Available Threads menu item in the View menu. It should now have a check next to it, and you should see the Available Threads pane on the left side of the screen.

If the Available Threads pane is still not displaying, then the width of it is set to 0. To make it bigger, hover your mouse over the left edge of the easythreads window until you see your mouse cursor change to look like a line with two arrows pointing opposite ways. Once you have that cursor, click and drag the panel to the right until it is the size you like and then let go of the mouse button. The program will remember the size you have set the Available Threads pane.

If the Links pane is not displaying, then the width of it is set to 0. To make it bigger, hover your mouse over the right edge of the easythreads window until you see your mouse cursor change to look like a line with two arrows pointing opposite ways. Once you have that cursor, click and drag the panel to the left until it is the size you like and then let go of the mouse button. The program will remember the size you have set the Links pane.
