I’m still using RW version 6.38 since I work infrequently on my website [[www.PerpetualMotionMedia.com](http://www.PerpetualMotionMedia.com) ], and still running the Sierra OS. I store my RW files on an external RAID. Near the end of 2019 I began making a series of updates to my website. During my last session I noticed that the narrow RW window which had always been on the left side of my screen was somewhat narrower. I didn’t pay it much attention then since it still showed operating links to the different pages of the website as I edited. But then it disappeared. I don’t know what I may have done to cause that, if anything, but it’s loss is impeding my progress greatly. I’ve tried every menu item, including View\>Pages and Resources, looking for a way to regain that navigational window, unsuccessfully. I can’t find a manual for RW 6, and searched extensively online today for a solution, without success. Perhaps RW needs reinstallation? I’d greatly appreciate anyone’s help with my issue. Thanks!

The oldest version of RW I have is 7.5, but try this. - Put your mouse cursor on the left-hand edge of the RW window until it turns into a tiny line with an arrow pointing to the right. It’s tricky, you have to be in just the right place. - Hold the left mouse button and move the mouse to the right and the page list should pop out - You can hide it by the reverse with the mouse pointer on the RH edge of the page list. ---

Just like this 🙂 [![](https://img.youtube.com/vi/JuDBgkUfFw8/hqdefault.jpg "RW Page List") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JuDBgkUfFw8) ---

You should be able to use the “Show Page List” option in the view menu. If this isn’t available in your version of RapidWeaver (and I don’t think it is). You can probably get the page list back by deleting the preferences, and re-launching RapidWeaver. ![07](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/6/8/68f55c93e028f0d2701be39978acdb9a7c5accc4.png) ---

in RW 6 it is: View/Pages & Resources CMD 2 is the shortcut. If that doesn’t work, delete your prefs (com.realmacsoftware.rapidweaver6.plist) ---

It worked! Thanks for tip and the short demo! I feel rusty, like a beginner after the years I’ve been an RW user. ---

CMD 2 worked after I followed the tip above successfully. I’d tried the menu item perhaps 8 times in the last 4 days, without anything happening until now. Thanks! Both ways now work. ---

I might try deleting the preferences anyway, since a few quirky but minor things have happened lately. I saw a guide online to deleting them. When my website is properly tweaked in its present overall layout, I will upgrade RW and try for a major layout and design change, an overdue new look.
