It looks like some kind of theme or something on your system rounding the edge of the Moho window and likely obscuring the scroll bar.

Based on your reply, I looked into Apple's desktop "theme" (where you choose light or dark colors, etc.). There wasn't anything I could do to customize a window's shape, but I did find a setting for scroll bars. They were set to automatically appear based on mouse-use, trackpad-use or whatever, or I could change the setting to "always". I changed scroll bars to "always", shut down Moho and restarted it.

Yay! The horizontal scroll bar has appeared, and the timeline is docked!

Problem solved. Thank you for nudging me in the right direction, synthysin. Evidently a default setting was the culprit.

Huh, I didn't even know this was a thing. (It's been a long time since I owned a Mac.)

I'll point the Moho devs to this thread; I'm sure they will want to know about this issue. (Done.)

Glad my wild guess helped. :wink:

That's odd, I've also got it set to "Automatically based on mouse or trackpad" and it doesn't seem to affect Moho at all. (Actually, it would be nice if it did) I'm on MacOS Big Sur 11.2.1

There remains a possibility that turning Moho off then on solved the problem, or something else. Whatever the cause, I hope the devs figure out what happened and prevent it from happening again to somebody else.

It was a fresh install of Moho on a new hard drive and I had no scripts installed, so it seems likely that Moho 13.5 has a little bug somewhere pertaining to the horizontal scroll bar. But who knows? Last month, I had a dead lightbulb start working after lightning struck near the house. What was that all about? I have no idea.
