I'm thinking of adding a second cinema display to my system. If I have them both hooked up, will the brightness and power controls on the rightmost display control both of them? It seems like it would be a pain to turn them on / adjust the brightness individually, since the controls of the display on the left would be blocked.

If this doesn't happen automatically, is there a program or hack that will do it?

Also (assuming I go nuts) I'd be interested to see the simultaneous control would extend if I add a third display.

Thanks,

Alon

Not sure if there is a work around but my 2 20 inch cinema displays at work do not adjust together. One needs to use the brightness controls on each display or each of their display pref panes.
