When I hit my character panel, all I get is my character sheet, without the new character portrait on the left side. Someone said it was a bug, and said docking and undocking fixes, but it didn’t. Did I accidently hit a key combo that turned it off? There is nothing on my character sheet (like a left arrow button) to turn it back on. Just tabs for each category. Right-clicking upper left corner on character sheet has nothing either except show info which does the usual. Help? I know it’s only a cosmetic problem but it bugs me. No pun intended. Dray Cil ---

Well, my computer can handle it and I don’t mind the 1-2 second pause to load it up. An added note: this seems to be only for one character - all other characters show the portrait. Odd. ---

There is no short cut to turn it off. Make sure that your character window is really undocked out of a stack. Even if the char window is the only window in the stack it can still be stacked. Even pressing X to close the window does not remove the stack, you have to drag it out of the stack properly. That single window stack would look like this: ![grafik](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/4/8/2/482af5bb682577cc3d104ddb188a2d5fa6ac9c7c.png) ---

Hi. Man, I can’t believe I didn’t at least move the window around. I just had to drag it a bit and the portrait re-appeared. Thanks. Dray Cil ---
