Now you may go back to the original monitor (which will be inactive) and execute the mouse-at-the-bottom trick to move the dock back over once again.Īt least that’s how it works for me. Go ahead and click somewhere on the inactive display and notice the menu bar losing its lonely-inactive-greyness and springing to life in all its bright-active-shininess.What happens? Nothing?! The dock doesn’t move back?! Here’s what I think might be happening… Though the dock magically appears on the new screen, the display itself isn’t actually made active until an event occurs (such as clicking on a window or the desktop). Go back to the original screen and try moving your cursor to the bottom.Now slide your cursor to the bottom of said screen, and voila! The dock should appear on the new screen while it simultaneously disappears from the old.You can tell which of your displays are inactive because the menu bar at the top of the screen will be greyed out. With multiple display monitors fired up, move your mouse pointer to a non-active screen.
