I'm running photoshop 7 on dual monitors on XP pro and I can't seem to drag the new image window to the other monitor. I can drag the palettes around without any problem but the actual image window cannot be moved outside the photoshop program area. Any solutions to this? thanks

not an answer, but I've always wondered...can you get rid of that 'program area' in PS for Windows, and just have the document windows?

Un-maximize your photoshop app and just drag the edges of the photoshop window across to fill both monitors.
You have it maximized to the "current monitor".
Make sese?

you can do it. I do it at work and it works fine, the problem is that you have to expand the toal size of the main application window itself, know what I mean?

Hey - anyone every used the audio annotations in Photoshop - they're just funny - leave hidden messages in your PSDs for future design employees to find ;) hehe

ribit, press tab, that what you mean?

yeah Mick, that's fun, I like to record small vocoder (robot) vocals and put them in. Like,
'Don't Touch That Shithead'. lol!

some dual heads have the span vs stretch in the display properties, thus you can maximize across both by selecting the little option, I know ati usually has it and matrox

unformatted... I'm on Mac, last time I used Photoshop on Windows it was... PS 3 on Windows 3.1.

maybe you should move one of the monitors closer to the other? Or maybe tip it over a little bit so it's like... leaning towards the other?

OK - gimme the best idea for a Photoshop Audio Annotation...
How about...
"Get out while you can, this place sux, you'll get no where - escappppeee!"or
"Hey everyone look at me, I'm watching Porn".

unfortunately resizing the photoshop area won't work because the secondary monitor is set to a lower resolution. So I'd have a big gap on the bottom of the main monitor. thanks though

oh, no the program background will always be there

resize height of program window so you can drag the width to span both monitors, then redrag the height to fit higher res monitor.
