So For a long time I had a main screen and a secondary screen off to the right. I had all my palettes on it, my instant messenger on it, itunes etc. It was really an awesome setup. Then I decided to rearrange my desk, which by the way makes it so much nicer. I left my main screen where it is and moved my secondary screen from the right to the left. Then I laid out all my palettes etc, my AIM windows, everything. So now I'm back to normal with dual screens and everything laid out nice, or so I thought. I'm having a problem where, all the Adobe apps, when you bring up a dialog like a Layer Effects window, they don't check to make sure where they are drawing a window isn't off screen. I used to have them on my 2nd monitor off to the right. Now my 2nd monitor is on the left but these adobe windows still draw on the right, where there is no screen. To make it worse my two monitors are not exactly the same size and are not perfectly aligned top and bottom. So if I try to change my arrangement all the time to rescue these windows, I'll never be able to get it back exactly where it was before, and all my windows that are on the 2nd screen will now but off, including my adobe palettes which will have either their tops or bottoms cropped off the top or bottom edge of the screen.

What to do?
