What caused the lack of the base on the dials is the little lock you can see in the bottom left, click on that and the orders bar minimises itself and only appears when you mouse over it.
That's a feature of the stock UI, although perhaps the dials aren't supposed to stay on-screen whilst the rest is off screen.

Well that's interesting, I've learned something new!!
I know the Number Pad "Del" key hides the HUD interface (including the Dials)....guess I never clicked on the "Lock" button on the left side to see what it does.
As you've probably found out, mousing over the Text Message Box will have a small "X" appear....it's with this symbol that allows you to move the Message Box and the Omnimeter around the screen. If you ever move the Message Box so far off the screen that you can't find it again, try using the top edge "Arrow" symbol to expand the Text Box. Sometimes that will open up the Box large enough to find the "X" symbol to pull it back into view. If you expand the Text Box using the top "Arrow" symbol you'll see that the Omnimeter expands too, having the two scale sliders move out of position. If this happens during game play, just use the "Arrow" function to put the scale sliders back into proper position.
