Primary Monitor

(OP)
For those that read my Vertical Toolbar Problems, I have found the solution:

I am running Two Monitors, my primary monitor is Flat Screen LCD, and the secondary monitor is an older CRT. When running NX5 on the LCD, the toolbars work as they should. However, if I drag NX5 over to the secondary (CRT) monitor the toolbars no longer can be moved properly. When trying to move a toolbar under a different vertical toolbar a NEW COLUMN is created. Image generation is also affected by this, and this is how I discovered the problem and also explains it's intermittence, generating images (.png, .jpg etc.) apparently can only be created from NX on the Primary Monitor.

Another small interesting bit is that if I make the CRT my Primary monitor the toolbars work fine in either monitor. However, image generation still only works in the primary monitor.

This was all new to me, but now I know how to work around it. Thanks to all who had suggestions on how to cure the annoying toolbar situation.
