Problem - I lost a Lua window

I know, tell me about it. I lost a Lua window on one specific character, but when running the Lua on other characters it presents just fine. This makes me believe it's character specific, and I cannot find it in the specific Lua resource where characters are configured, nor can I find a general Lua window section in my character MQ config files. If it undocked off my screen, I have no idea where it is.

How is Lua window positioning stored for characters?

what Lua window?

they're stored in your mq_overlay.ini

You can turn off Viewports in /mqsettings and that will force all windows to be within your EQ window, if they happened to be placed outside of it. Then, check the borders of your screen to see if you can spot the little sliver of the window that's missing. I've had a similar issue in the past and that's how I solved it.
 
Something seems to be up with this. The other day someone using Grouper mentioned the window disappearing and we resolved it. A couple days later I had the same thing happen on the two characters I run Grouper on. Turned viewports ON and the Grouper window showed up on the second monitor. Dragged it back over to EQ window and turned viewports back OFF. Today when I logged in the window was gone again and only way to get it back was to clear the ImGui window settings. Still haven't figured out how any of that happened.
