[Qgis-user] field calculator remains hidden

Since a few days I have to deal with a permanently hidden field calculator.
Can call the field calculator with the button(s) and it seems to be open,
but it keeps always hidden. That means, I can't see this dialog and other
QGIS dialogs (attribute table window/dialog) and windows (map window) are
blocked. Can close the calculator dialog only with the menu, that is exposed
when hoovering the cursor over QGIS icon in the task bar. 

This problem occured first time in QGIS 2.4* after I tried to calculate a
WKT geometry of some polygons in a text field when the field calculator
dialog resized to very broad (too many decimal places of the coordinates). I
am afraid this automatic resizing exceeded a plausible value that has been
stored and now the calculator dialog can't be shown again. 

Have also installed QGIS 2.12 on the same machine and the problem now
concerns also this version although it wasn't caused by it. So I assume,
there are common settings used for both versions. Can anybody point me to
this place and give some advice how to reset the values for field calculator
dialog ?

Field calculator is really great in QGIS - but you should see it in order to
enter something ... 
Thanks a lot and regards, Christine
