Moving photoshop onto a dual display

Hey guys, cheers for replying!

I know i can drag the palettes over separately but the header bar with File, Edit, Image, Layer etc... stays at the top of the main screen. On a PC i can just drag the whole application onto the second display. I have the monitors set up as extended and i am able to drag other programmes onto the second display just not Adobe programmes.

Regarding the type issue i know you can see a preview of the font and it's name by clicking the blue arrow but it doesn't show you how the actual text you're changing on the page will look until you click and select that font type. This isn't too big an issue- just a bit annoying really because this is a really nice feature on the PC version.

Jake,

If your second monitor is set to extend your desktop, rather than mirror it, you can designate your main monitor in your preferences, and you can simply drag whatever you want (such as palettes, panes, and windows) over to the other monitor.

As for scrolling through type, typically when you click on the blue down arrow adjacent to the active font or style, you get a flyout menu (and, as appropriate, style submenu) listing your fonts. You can easily scroll through the list with the wheel on your mouse, or by moving the pointer to the bottom or top of the menu list. Then just select the font and (if more than one) the style you want.

>i've already found out that i can't even just scroll through type faces in Illustrator by using the up and down arrows!!!

Yes you can.

Also I'm using a dual monitor setup, but I have a Tower. What exactly are you trying to do? if the second monitor is connected just use it.
