Studio 2017: "Messages" window pops up over "Translation Results" window

Question

My "Translation Results" window keeps being pushed to the background by the "Messages" window, which is very annoying. I can close the "Messages" window, but sure enough, it will reappear like a zombie a few segments later. I have also clicked on the "Delete all messages" icon but the window still reappear soon after.

Hi Angela, 
 You need to pull the message window out of that group, not move the whole group! 
 Maybe uncheck the tag verification though and then you won't get these messages at all. All the options are in here:

Hi kevin white 
 One thing to try: 
 Click 'Reset Window Layout' on the 'View' tab with the window open that this is happening with (Editor I presume). 
 
 This resets the layout of the window you are currently working in. The layout can become corrupted by updates for example. 
 If that doesn't help, as Paul suggests, create a new Thread describing the problem in detail and how it happens. Then you'll get more targeted help and it will be more useful for others looking for a solution to the same scenario. 
 Thanks! 
 Ali

Hello Aubéline Brandamir , 
 Unfortunately, the screenshot is far too small to be able to read. 
 Please take a screenshot- save it to your desktop and then add it to the thread- this should then appear much larger. 
 As this thread is now very old, It's a good idea to start a new one and provide as much detail as you possibly can

 When replying to someone in particular (not necessary in a new thread) its always good to tag them so that they receive a notification- otherwise the post might be overlooked-

Hi Angela, 
 
What are the messages? Seems unusual to get so many that they become a problem like this. Maybe you can undock the messages window and place it somewhere else so it doesn't sit over the TM Results view?
