Ok I'm ure I must be missing some kind of option here, but I've just bought a MBP and a ACD. Now I want to be able to use the ACD to play my games in full screen, however when I play World of Warcraft it will only go full screen on the MBP screen as opposed to the ACD.
Surely there is a way to get it to run on the ACD and possibly at the ACD native resolution?

Thanks in advance

Games go full screen on your primary monitor, generally. Is the ACD set as primary? If not, you have to drag the menu bar to it in the arrangements section of display preferences.
