I open PS on monitor 2 which is my better monitor where the image appears and is edited; some pallets are on monitor 1. In Color Settings the monitor RGB is using monitor 1's profile instead of monitor 2. How can I change that? Also, if the editing screen is switched from monitor to monitor in mid-edit does PS automatically change its monitor RGB to correspond?

thx,

Rick

There may be another option. See: http://www.luminous-landscape.com/forum/index.php?topic=54932.msg447995#msg447995

I prefer to have my main display be my inexpensive Acer, which I use for most things, like internet surfing, as well as for my tools in Photoshop. When working on a photo in PS, I just drag the photo to my good display (NEC). That way, there is nothing on my NEC but my photo, with all the PS tools etc on my Acer.
