I’ve just upgrade to PS CS and now have a dilemma using the PS Browser w/dual monitors in PS.

In PS 7, the browser was ideally (for dual monitors) located as a Tab in the docking station(?)…which when opened could be opened in the Monitor off to the right of my main window…which allowed for an excellent workspace. All Panels are also located there. I’ve been using dual monitors for quite some time and highly recommend it.

Now, in PS CS Adobe moved the browser from the docking station to it’s own space in the toolbar and will only open the browser in the main monitor window, covering up my entire workspace…a real pain.

Does anyone know how to dock the browser to the docking station ala PS 7? Or does anyone know how to move the browser to the alternate window, so my workspace will remain uncovered?

TIA,
Kevin

What kind of monitor software do you have?
My ATI and NVidia have options to expand the
desktop across both screens so the menus
and all other screens open and can be dragged
to both.

That works if both monitors are the same size and set to the same resolution…but in my case I have a 21 and a 17. I keep all my tools and panels on the little one. If you have to drag…and I find that I don’t…you can always open windows explorer on the other monitor and drag from there.

I’m using a 19 and a 17, but both are
at the same resolution, and that works
for me. I guess there is somthing I don’t
understand about your setup.
