1) How does Spaces work on a dual monitor setup? does every monitor has its own spaces (hopefully) or what?

2) Do you get another dock/top bar on your second monitor as well?

3) When I show up my widgets, will they appear on both monitors or just the one my mouse is in?

Thanks in advance !! :)

1) when you hit spaces you see both monitors in a space, but the 2 monitors follow each other as a space, you can't change monitor a's space with out also changing the space for b, but they are different.

2) no.

3) shows up on both screens.

When I bring my Dashboard up it only shows it on my primary monitor when I'm using my Macbook screen as the secondary monitor.

But aren't all the applications options (the "file", "edit", "view"...etc) are located in the top bar in mac? does that mean I have to move the mouse to the primary window if I want to use my program options?
