I use the latest Photoshop on a desktop with Win10 Home Edition and i have 2 monitors.

I would like to know how i can drag the Photoshop interface from one monitor to the other together with toolbars and panels.

What happens now is that i have to move the interface of the app and then toolbars and panels.

You can also set up Photoshop UI to take advantage of you mutiple displays and create a workspace fo yoy envitonment.  Here you see I  have three displays a 16:9 4K 3840x2160 display flanked by 2 4:3 1600x1200 Displays.  I have Photoshop Main UI Window  on the center 4K display The Pallets I use the most on the left display and Adobe Bridge on the right display.

This site will resize the 7040px x 2160 screen capture to small to be readable

Thanks for your reply but my post was misleading. I cannot spread my pallets to different monitors because my second monitor is a Wacom One tablet which means that i cannot use the pen on my main monitor. And my main monitor is a 40'' Samsung HD TV screen(!) For now.

If You want to use your Wacon Tablet Pen on your TV map your pen to just your TV when Photoshop is the active application.

 

If your Wacom is a Cintiq  it is a monitor. If it is a Tablet it is not a monitor.  I map  Intuos pro tablet pen to my My main Display when I'm using Photoshop.  I use all displays with Photoshop. However, my Wacom Pen can only be used on my main display when Photoshop is the active application. When I'm using other applications  my Wacom tablet maps the pen to all my displays.

 

You should be able to put Photoshop Windows and palette on any Display you have  have configure on your PC.  If your desktop is expanded to your TV there should be no issue positioning palettes on all displays including your TV.  Here My third display is my Surface Pro 3 Display connect to my workstation over my in house gigibit network using SpaceDesk.

all other applications.

 

Windows configuration display  2 is a 23" 1920x1080 display.  Display 1  a 27" 1920x1080 display  my main display.  Display 3 12"  2160x1440 display.

If the tool bar and panels are docked to the application frame, they will move along with it.

''Docked'' is the answer to my issue. I had to find how to dock the panels in a way to suit my needs. Thanks.
