Hi,

I just hooked up a second monitor to my G4 and was wondering if anyone knew a way whereby I can have the main menubar on each screen?

I guess it's just something to get used to but it's weird to go from the menubar on one screen to something happening on the other...

Thanks

I have wanted this forever (well, slightly less than . . .). This is the only advantage to the Windows method, the menu is part of the window (of course I have never managed to get my PC with two video cards to work in a dual monitor setup, so maybe it isn't an advantage).

I keep hoping someone will develop this.

jasong,

Hmmm, it's a shame it's not easy to do. Ideally I would like the option to have the screens split the way they are at the moment but have the menubar mirrored when required.

One day perhaps...
