Well, you can try moving your taskbar around, perhaps the editing tool is hiding behind it!

Well the only reason I can see for it not showing up is it being off-screen because it shows that the window has opened(by the color of the top bar). Is your resolution set to max possible?

Press V then Y?

Also, I recommend setting your windows settings to "classic". The 'fixed tool' window can often screw up when using a theme.

The window is set to always be visible above its parent window, so it will not be hidden behind Radiant. The most common situation is that the window has defaulted itself to the top left corner, but scan all around your screen edges.

Not to my knowledge. But you can make decals fade using the Alpha tool (Default: G)
