On my 2006 iMac running MacOS 10.7.5 if I drag a window between the monitors I can see half of the window in each monitor.

Doing that on my Mac mini running MacOS 10.15.5 doesn't work like that (see silly picture above).

Does anyone know of a way to get the Mac mini to behave like the earlier machine and system?

Uncheck the 'separate spaces' box.

1. Why does Apple shove things up one's nose and not document how to "regress" if one wants to?

2. As our house is in the clutches of the builders where are the Guinness Book of Records people going to stay
when they come to write down the details of my world record for replying to my own posts?

10.7 fullscreen mode had one big disadvantage: a full screen window on a monitor would black out the other monitor too. Difference spaces is usually better as a default option.
