One lesson here is that after a year with my OS X, starting from beta testing of Yosemite, it's easy to lose track of all the UI refinements I made to suit me as I went along. The advantage of the second option is that your Space is larger, spans two displays, and the displays remain in sync as you jump through your defined Spaces. The advantage of the first option is that you can keep one Space on one display fixed and cycle through the Spaces of a second display. As you cycle through Spaces, the same Space spans both displays.įor example, you could have both displays supporting Desktop Spaces #1,2,3 and 4. Box Unchecked: The two displays can be thought of as one large display with only one menu bar. On display #2, you could have Desktop Spaces 5,6 and 7.Ģ. Think of each display as a separate stack of Spaces, independent of the other display.įor example, on display #1, you could have Desktop Spaces # 1,2,3 and 4. Box Checked: Each of your displays works independently when it comes to the menu bar and its associated Spaces that are defined in Mission Control. There, nicely low key and easy to overlook is the setting: "Displays have separate Spaces." Here's a screen shot.ġ. The setting I need to tweak is found in OS X: Apple menu > System Preferences > Mission Control.

For a minute, I was mystified because this is not how I normally work and not what I expected.Īfter a bit, I realized that this default behavior is a long lost remnant from the early days of my Yosemite install when I changed the behavior of my work Spaces.
If I clicked on the display with a dimmed menu bar, it came to life. When I fired up my Mac Pro from that drive, I noticed that each of my two monitors had a menu bar.
This story started when I did a clean install of Yosemite on an external drive.
#Disable screen shot mac os x full
The immediate symptom is a rather confusing presentation of a full menu bar on each display, with the one that's inactive dimmed. OS X Yosemite (and Mavericks), by default in a clean install, provide for each monitor, in a multiple monitor system, to have its own display Spaces.
