Hello...

I have a small, funny problem to solve

#1.   I have multiple monitor setup as almost everybody here.
#2.  I work with the main monitor with 3ds Max and, for example, on second monitor Photoshop.
#3.  If, for some reason, the second monitor is off and I turn on Photoshop, it will be on the second monitor, of course.
#4.  So, if I want to see Photoshop on the main monitor, I need to turn on the second monitor, move Photoshop on the first monitor and turn off the second monitor.
#5.  I tried to find some software to help me to avoid this  "long procedure", but I didn't find nothing interesting.


How did you solve this problem?

Thanks ^__^

International version:

- Set focus to application (here: PS) by clicking on the taksbar icon or ALT-Tab to it
- press ALT+SPACE to summon the window menu (you cannot see it but it does pop up)
- press cursor down twice, then return. Move mode is activated for the application now
- use cursor right (or left) to move the window to your active display until you can grab it


Good Luck

To move a window between screens I use Win + Shift + Left/Right Arrow.
