[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1796828, member: 396914"] +1 for what Bob said. If you power off a display, the Mac thinks it's been detached (in a sense, it has been electronically detached). And the display tries to rearrange the windows on the remaining displays, which to you looks like they are moving around. You need to keep external monitors powered on to the point where they don't "disappear" from the Mac. It's probably OK if they "sleep" as long as power is still on and the monitor responds to the Mac to "wake up" from the sleep when the Mac wakes up. [/QUOTE]
