10.4: Easily use Front Row on a second monitor (TV)
Authored by: captain caveman on Dec 07, '05 12:47:34PM
I've got three screens... so this gets a little funnier.

I can't just swap between two monitors, and the listing order changes as you tweak the menubar, so I made the following change in order to make sure I select the proper monitor. (Fortunately, each has a different resolution... 1920 for the main LCD, 1024 for the second LCD, and 640 for the TV)


	do script "cscreen -s `cscreen | grep 1920 | awk '{print $1}'` -p"
The problem I have now is that this rearranges my screens in addition to moving the menubar... ie, the mouse doesn't move across the monitors in the order I expect.

Anyone know how to avoid this? Or how to rearrange the screens from command line?
