How to have all open windows stay put when disconnecting display?

hi all,

have apple cinema display , 13" mbp running latest version of lion. find annoying whenever use mbp in clamshell mode , need disconnect display, windows spread on over mbp , can't reach it. there way can have windows stay put or gather desktop visibly after disconnect display?

thanks!

 

i've had same issue. unplug projector macbook air , can't access windows or menubar. i've had force machine power off , restart.

next time happens i'm going try hitting command-f2 try re-detect displays. never knew keyboard shortcut before.
