Mouse dropped me off map and I cannot get back

My optical mouse sometimes jumps my cursor around. While in map my character disappeared. Based on shadow directions I surmised that my character had moved may up to top left of map out of boundary. GM could not find me to bring me back to normal screen area.

Here are some steps your GM can perform to bring the token back into view: 1) Change to the layer the token is on (Token layer probably) 2) Left-click on the map (to make sure you are in that window frame). 3) Hit Ctrl+A to select the entire layer. 4) Move the entire layer down and to the right while holding ALT to move the layer. This will bring your character back into view. 5) Move the token into a more central location. 6) Hit Ctrl+A to select the entire layer 7) Move the entire layer up and to the left while holding ALT to move the layer back into it's original position. I suggest using some kind of reference token to get the layer back into position. Note: there may be some slight placement errors that may need to be manually fixed. Alternately, he can just create a new token for you.
Thank you for quick response! My son...who is the GM for our game...did in fact discover the Ctrl+A technique on his own a few minutes ago. He brought all tokens down and could see mine. He then moved my token back down near others and readjusted everything ok. We love Roll20 as our son is a Marine stationed in California and we live in Tennessee. Thank you to all who developed Roll20 and to community leaders like yourself who make this possible!
