dual monitor
is it possible to have the action panel and tools and stuff on one monitor, and the stage/timeline on the other? I just got another monitor for xmas and i can't seem to get flash to do what i want. anyone else have two monitors?

That's how I have my Flash set up... 
Just open up the Flash... Open up the Action window... Drag it to the other monitor... and that's what you will love most...

is there a way to move everything, so only the stage is left behind? or do i have to set each window up with individual boxes on the 2nd monitor?

well, you should be able to keep stuff docked and just drag the edge of your main flash window so that its as wide as both screens

Yeah, you can just drag out whatever panels you want and put them on the other side however you want. Then go to your Window menu > Save Panel Layout...
That way you can easily refresh your layout. I have mine set up with the stage, properties and tools on one side, and the actions and timeline on the other. Its sweet!

what do you mean never comes up? you mean you have to open it everytime you open flash? You could try the 'save panel layout' but i guess that wouldn't save you any steps

That sucks. I remember hearing stuff about that related to issues with the library panel. I think they've improved that part a little since mx, but if I remember correctly (which its quite possible I don't), the rest of those issues won't be fixed until another major version update. I think it has something to do with the way the core is programed and the fact that the timeline is a file specific (sort of) panel like the library was. Not sure if that made sense... Hopefully someone else knows more. Windows XP? Thats what I have and the same thing happens.
