From: John Blaustein on 19 Feb 2010 12:29 Hi, Using two monitors -- main on right; secondary on left. When I click a context menu in Dreamweaver on a panel that is on the secondary monitor, the menu opens all the way on the right side of the right hand monitor. I have tried everything I can think of, and the problem persists. Anyone have any ideas? Thank you. John

From: John Blaustein on 19 Feb 2010 13:51 Bob, I should have mentioned that. No, it does not. In fact, I use a very similar layout for Photoshop and the flyout context menus work as predicted there. Dreamweaver and Photoshop are both part of the CS4 suite, so they should work exactly the same way in the same environment, but they don't for me. I have posted a couple of messages on the Adobe Dreamweaver forum and received no replies. Any ideas? This one has me stumped!

Dreamweaver even has a preset screen layout called Dual Screen in which it places all the panels on the second monitor. The problem still occurs, and it's with all panels no matter where on the second monitor they are placed. John "John Blaustein" wrote: > Bob, > > I should have mentioned that. No, it does not.
