How to move a Modeless dialog that is on a disconnected monitor

Question

Similar to the following questions (but different):

• Moving a window from a disconnected monitor to connected monitor on Vista
• How to move an application's dialog box from a disconnected monitor to the main

I have an application that opens a modeless dialog (no entry in taskbar), but that dialog opens on a monitor that is not connected at the moment.

How can I move this modeless dialog to my current monitor?

Update

I had to close the application, then re-open it, and then both suggestions by @torbengb and @Xantec worked. Thanks!

Answer 1

In Windows, you can always get to the window menu using the keyboard:

1. Press Alt+Space then Enter which selects the first menu entry, Move.
2. Then use the arrow keys to move the dialog.
3. If the window is outside your visible viewport, then the dialog should jump into sight at the first arrow-keypress. If it doesn't then I hope you can remember to what side the unconnected monitor was and press the arrow key for the opposite direction.

Answer 2

If you can be reasonably sure that the dialog has focus you can try ALT+Space then M and use the arrow keys to move it. when you have it where you want it press Enter.
