F3 doesn't help

thread560-72346: Lost Specification Tree in V5
The specification tree disappeared from the desktop and F3 doesn't make it reappear. F3 makes scroll bars (left and bottom) visible/invisible but that's about it.
How do I fix this?

CATIA V5R19, WinXP x64, Quadro FX3700 (driver 259.57)

Thanks.

RE: F3 doesn't help

Q: What did you do?
A: You've selected the tree and zoom it out so much that is to small to be shown on the screen.
Solution: Pres F3 and scroll down or up your mouse wheel until a slide bar appear on the left side of the screen. If this doesn't happen you must press once again F3 and redo the scrolling thing, until the slide bar appear. At that point press SHIFT+F3 and drag the slider to the top; after that press CTRL button scroll up with your mouse wheel. The tree should appear.
Hope that this helps!

It did help!
I fiddled with the controls and finally clicking the "fill all in" icon pulled back the tree.

Thanks!
