Screen Selection Option (for people with two screens)

Jun 19, 2008 sfriedenberg link
I have a MBP and and an external Dell Display. I'd really appreciate it if I was able to select which screen VO displayed on. The reason for my wanting this is that my external display is brighter, bigger and overall just better, and naturally, I'd like to use it.

Something else along those lines and quite similar is utilizing two screens. I know there have already been threads about this, so I'm not going to delve into details, but a targetless-like list on my spare display would be awesome and amazing.

I think you can work around this issue by selecting the dell screen as your primary screen and your MBP's as secondary.

Note: Sometimes hardware wise, the secondary screen lacks graphical acceleration.

yes, that is a solution, but I'd much rather have my dock on my MBP screen and have my Dell as the external screen, because of preference and physical layout.
