    If you mean you want the screen/window to extent between the two monitor screens then check the box that says Display have separate spaces. See:

    Up until Mavericks, the default setup for multiple displays was "Extended desktop". This picture show how it works far better than any words I could post here:

    The blue boxes are Icons for your displays, whose sizes are proportional to the number of pixels. Drag the boxes so that they accurately represent the placement of the displays on your bench (left, right, up, down). Then the mouse moves freely across the boundary between displays, and you can drag a window with it. You can also stretch a window so that it covers most of both screens.

     

    The small white header is an Icon for the MenuBar, which is also moveable.

     

    for Mavericks and later, a different scheme "Displays have separate spaces" becomes the default, but can be annulled by this setting in Mission Control:

    "Full Screen" is a concept ported from iOS, the land of tiny screens and one-at-a-time processing for the iPhone. If you have multiple screens, invoking "Full Screen" will make most of the screens stop working entirely, which your main window expands into the MenuBar area. Do not use "Full Screen" on a Mac with multiple screens.
