Paul,
I found out how to restore the position. Open in any text editor the following file:
~/.bibledit/configuration/configuration.1.xml (here the tilde stands for your home directory; you can type the name of your text editor and then that path. For example, in Ubuntu with its 'gedit' text editor it will be like this:
gedit ~/.bibledit/configuration/configuration.1.xml)
Then search for (in gedit you press CTR+F) the line 'window-y-positions' (without quotes and make sure the 'positions' is plural because there is another instance of 'window-y-position' which does something different). You will get something like this:
<window-y-positions>
<value>0</value>
<value>-17</value>
<value>0</value>
</window-y-positions>
Change the middle value into '0' (zero) and save the file. If your text editor can show line numbers it should be the line 101. At least it is so in my case. Here I put '-17' but you may have another value. But minus means that the titlebar is too high and perhaps hidden. If you have positive value it means that the bar is too low. So zero is just on.
I assume that Bibledit is off when doing that.

Hi Paul,
I did this too on Bibledit, a year ago; I'm trying to remember
what I did to solve it. It still is a problem in BE-GTK v 4.1;
I've just got myself into the same bind.
Here's one suggestion: Copy your hidden project to a new project
(File - Project - Copy to). Then you can delete the original,
hidden project.
I agree that this is a problem that needs a solution! I'm copying
the bibledit newsgroup on this message; any other ideas out there?

Lucid on EEEpc, Balsa is good but working
under Linux has a lot of hidden challenges because it is so
different from Windows (in the nuts-and-bolts). My main problem
at present is that I have moved the subwindow in Bibledit (the
one where you type in scripture) so that its title bar is hidden
underneath the general toolbar of Bibledit, and there appears to
be no way to get the title bar back down. Since the subwindow
also moved to the left when this happened, I cannot see the
first several cm of text on each line. Thus I am effectively
prevented from using Bibledit at all.
(Someone who also uses Bibledit though not BALSA has given me a
technical solution which involves editing some kind of control
file. I'm sure I can follow the directions, but this would not
be a reasonable option for the target BALSA user.)
