Hi - is there a quick way to bring a window that was on my second monitor back to the primary monitor?
I have a two monitor display, and sometimes only need my primary monitor. If Firefox, for example, was previously on my second monitor, when I only use my primary I have to:
- Right click on bottom panel
- "Move"
- Use the cursors to bring Firefox back into view
This is a bit of a hassle, and I'm wondering if there is a script/app/keyboard shortcut/whatever that can speed this up.
Thanks - as always
