Two weeks ago, down at the Creative Suite conference in Miami, I had a conversation with someone who insisted that you can’t dock the side tab panels in InDesign CS2 to a second monitor. I wish I could remember who it was so I could send the person a note, but the short-term memory is getting shorter and shorter.
It took me a couple of days home before I remembered the conversation, and yesterday I tested it out.
I was right, and my un-named person was wrong.
You can easily docked the tabbed palettes in InDesign to a second monitor. Or, I should say I had no problem doing so on a PowerBook G4 using an external NEC monitor. In fact, not only can you dock them, but you can even save the arrangement as a workspace.
