I'm guessing that you are running on a dual monitor system and that
the Dashboard is on a different monitor than the main display.  If
that is true, then the work around at present is to have the 
Dashboard on the same monitor as the main IDV display.

We are looking into a fix for this.  Someone else reported the sam
problem today.

If you are not running on a dual monitor system, let me know.
