I have two monitors hooked up to my system. One is the laptops screen and the other is an external monitor. All is working as it should with the two monitors.
My question is this: I've opened up widget B on monitor 1 and I've got some information that's on widget A that I want to look at while working on widget B. My idea is that I would open both widgets and have one open on one monitor and the other open on monitor 2.
Problem is: I cannot get it to do this. I can move all of ACLT to one monitor or the other but not both at the same time.
Now, I did figure out that if I opened the program twice that I could get it to work but my concern is using up processor speed to do this.
We recently obtained second monitors. Since then we occasionally get gray blocks in the Inventor browser.

Is this a graphics card issue?
Is it a bad cable or adaptor?
Is it the monitors?
This machine has NVIDIA Quadro 2000 graphics card. The monitors are plugged into the ports as shown below. The screen resolution is set to 1680x1050x59 hertz per monitor. The monitors are ACER V226WL.Â

When I section a view and edit the hatches, the 'Edit Hatch Pattern' window always opens off-screen. Â I have changed the settings in the GPU control panel to have everything open on the last window, but this window will not abide. Â I move the window to the Inventor window (monitor 2), but it will re-open back to monitor 1 in the exact same position every time.
The 'Edit Hatch Pattern' window seems to be the only window that does this in Inventor. Â Attached is a screen cap of the issue. Â The window opens in the same place each time.

I've been running dual monitors (22" and a 18") for a while, but I just upgraded to a larger second monitor (now both 22"). Before, I left AutoCAD running in the main monitor, but now I've switched it to run in the second monitor instead. Now AutoCAD will not remember the position or size of the Open and Save dialog boxes while it is in the second monitor. Sometimes it throws them back into the main monitor and other times they show up in the second but without the resize I did previously.Â
At the moment I'm using 2 monitors for PS. At monitor 1 I have the work and monitor 2 has the tools. I like that, but some strange things happens.
If I put the toolbar (the vertical one) on monitor 2 and if I like to fill up the colors on my work with the paintbucket, the toolbar turn out to be gray. (foreground AND background)
It is not possible to change the colors, so I have to drag the toolbar back to monitor 1, change the colors and than it works.
When I drag the toolbar back to monitor 2 it still has 2 colors (fore- and background) untill I use the paintbucket again.
Is this a normal situation for PS? Are there more weird things by using 2 monitors?
Is there a way to drag and open document or canvas on the secondary monitor? I'm able to drag the smaller preferences windows such as blending option windows etc. over to it, but not the actual documents.
My monitor is starting to flicker. Since it is a few years old I will need to replace it. I was wondering if anyone has a suggestion for a good but medium priced monitor. In the past I had a CRT monitor. Later on I worked with an LCD and obtained good results with both. I have PSCS3 and WXP operating system. I have been reading about ISP based monitors and VGA.
I have been using dual 21" CRT monitors for years and my eyes cant take it any more. I want to switch to LCD monitors however I am not sure about detail / clarity. I work on Photoshop 8 hours a day so I need the monitor quality. I am comparing a Dell FPD2185W and a LG 203WTX. Too hard to really see detail in the stores. If anyone has any input as to the best quality or sharpest LCD monitors to consider for Photoshop
I have recently purchased new HP laptop 320/4g/2.6, Windows Vista, and have an additional Samsung Monitor - T240 24" - I will be using Photoshop CS3, switching from Photoshop Elements6, and would like to know how I get Photoshop to recognize that I am using two monitors. I am also using Lightroom 2.0 and have no problem displaying a photo on the Samsung with it. What am I missing in Photoshop?
recently my 2nd monitor quit working in cs3. it works fine in LR2 and mail, but not photoshop. i run a mac pro w/leopard 10.5. this has brought my editing to a standstill.
I have twin monitors set up the defualt way whereby they act as two seperate monitors for two seperate applications to be maximized in and such. Basically, what happenes, is if i put Photoshop onto the secondary monitor, and create a new canvas, or have an open one, it does somthing similar to this: (picture attatched). Any reason or way to stop this? It doesnt do it if i strech the program over both screens but thats not practical for the obvious fault left in the middle.
I've spent ages designing only to notice on my crt the colours are different and when printed the colours are watered down and doesn't match. So I have no idea how the client will see the design.
I know this is a well-known issue but how best can I get around it?
I just noticed that my other monitor was viewing the image 'messed up' because it wasn't 'actual size' within the picture viewer. All looks fine now, but when printed the colours are still different, so my question now is:
How can I make my photoshop psd print out in the same colours as what I see on screen? (or as close to?)
I have just upgraded my PC to speed up my photo editing workflow. I now want a wide gamut monitor for proof editing my prints - of whhich I make a great deal at home. Ideally I would set the wide gamut monitor to a low brightness to match my paper and only use for photo editing. BUT I also want to regularly use the internet and run other software that much better suits the sRGB colour space. I was thinking of running a second standard spec monitor for internet access and to use as the tool panels in Lightroom and Photoshop.
Are there drivers to download for a typical touch screen monitor to enable it to have drawing capilities (probably wacom or something similar) for windows 7Â (such as pressure sensativity and be able to rest drawing hand on monitor without reading it)
First off I should note that I have an extra monitor connected to my MBP.
So I was processing a RAW image on the mac books monitor and it was looking great.
When I click open image it opened on the other monitor and the colors seemed muted...
Now heres the weird part.......when I click and bring the image to the MBP monitor the colors remain muted.......until I let got of the mouse button. Then they return back to vibrant colors. When I click and drag on the window and drag it from the MBP monitor back to my external monitor, the colors remian vibrant until I let go of the mouse button. Then they become muted again.
Though not really a PS question, this is the community that is likely to understand my concern. I'm investigating getting a wide gamut monitor( prob Eizo or NEC), but other forums say that there are issues. Some of you are probably using wide gamut monitors, so I thought I'd see what you think.
The concerns seem to be when using the monitor for non-imaging applications, since not all other applications are color managed. "They" say that sRGB JPG's look especially bad on the webb. I would think color managed stuff should be OK. What do you guys think? Worth it or not?
to go with a dual monitor set up. I am looking at the Diamond 9550, 128 MB card. With the rebate it comes to a more than reasonable $69.00. Is anyone using this card? I would appreciate any comments from those of you that use a double dual monitors set up.
 Frankly, the tech specs of individual cards leave my head in a spin and I'm not sure where else to go. I've tried a couple of sales lines but they haven't left me feeling confident. I want a fairly high-end card but I don't do video and gaming.
I have run two monitors from a AT! Radeon X800 Pro (I think I got the numbers right) which doesn't permit me to color profile two monitors. Consequently, my main monitor (Lacie Electron Blue) but the other one is always way off. It gets even more alarming if the image on the cheapo monitor looks better than the profiled monitor.
 It does make proofing difficult if I have the thumbnail on the cheapo and a larger image on the profiled monitor especially if you have more than one image that are close in content. I use an Eye 1 device to profile and I would just like to be able to profile both monitors with that device in an easy way.
I have an extra monitor and I would like to use Photoshop with 2 monitors. The dual video cards vary in cost from 50 -400 dollars. Since I am not a professional I certainly don't need a state of the art set up. I have searched this forum and have been unable to find any useful information although I do remember that some pass treads did discuss this topic.
how can we caliberate our monitors to work perfect with Photoshop and which gives us the exact view of images which we get after the printing.
Like mostly the colors/brightness/contrast of images on which we are working change when we change the monitors or if we view that file on other computers. So, how can we fix all this, like is there is any way through which we can calliberate all of our monitors to show the exact same result as it was displaying before ?
I'm losing my mind trying to work on IllyCS6 with dual monitors. when i switch around between programs on different monitors, Illustrator seems to mistakenly think I am dragging it from one screen to another and it keeps jumping back and forth.
I recently upgraded from CS4 to CS6 in after effects.  CS4 ran smoothly and fine.  However, when I start CS6 i get the typical loading screen, it then tells me that   GPUSniffer.exe has stopped working *I click close the program* Another window comes up After Effects error: Crash in progress. Last logged message was: "<2076><GPUManager><2>Sniffer Result Code: 1  Then it closes everything. I read online this can happen with multiple moniters. My main screen is connected via SVGA to my graphics card, however my second (and smaller screen) is connected to the mobo and runs on VGA.  My graphics card is fully updated as is most of my other drivers.  I can take out the moniter and then AE boots fine, but I don't want to do this everytime just for AE.
My only solution to this is leaving the error message there and waiting for AE to load, or clicking close and having everything crash.
So this bug was ignored during beta and it was NOT fixed in the official release of PhotoShop CS6. Â Since I don't feel like retyping the whole bug report after paying a grand for the software here is a link: [URL] Â if you commute with a laptop and dock with a full-size monitor for work every day!
