I’ve googled and searched this to no apparent end, so I’m checking to see if anyone has the same concerns as I do. I’m running a dual monitor setup, and I’d like Flash (Mac) running on the second monitor while I code in the primary one, and it’s impractical to swap their duties (coding is 20" and the Flash one is 13"). There are a couple problems though:

1. Docking isn’t supported on the second monitor (13" laptop). Makes working with the workspace a headache. What’s the dealio?

2. Any way to hack Flash to not remove the workspace panels when the application loses focus? If my application kicks out compile or run-time errors, I have to leave the app to fix them but doing so makes the panel disappear.

Thanks for the help 🙂
