Help please…I have just set up dual monitors. I usually have Internet Explorer, Macromedias Flash, Dreamweaver and Photoshop running at the same time. All 3 programs allow me to have my application on one monitor and their associated palettes/toolbars on the other. What I loved is that if I went from flash to dreamweaver, the flash palettes would drop off monitor #2 to be replaced by the dreamweaver palettes. Now I add Photoshop. Both dreamweaver’s and flash’s palettes minmized as I hoped, to be replaced by Photoshop’s palettes. Now here’s the problem: When I switch from Photoshop to any other application, the Photoshop palettes remain on monitor two. So, for example, I could have photoshops and flashes palettes overlapping each other on monitor 2. I’ve searched online, the knowledge base at adobe..but no luck. Please reply with any ideas 🙂
I am running windows xp (fresh install), photoshop 7 (ugraded to vers.
7.01), a Radeon 7500 video card with dual monitor support. Thanks everyone.

Are you minimizing Photoshop from the "minus" box in the upper right corner? When I do that, the palettes also disappear; but if I bring up another program just by clicking on it via the task bar, the Photoshop pallettes will stay.

True, works for me. Wait until this person is using Creative Studio and has pallettes for Illustrator, InDesign, and Photoshop all up at the same time, or forgetting to minimize one and accidentally clicking on a pallette to the "wrong program". I do that ALL THE TIME.

Minimise everything except the program you’re using then only the pallettes you want will show.
