Not sure if this is the right place to post this. Basically I have a Mac Pro with 2 displays. Primary display that I use for most of my work is a Cinema Display. My 2nd display is a Cintiq for digital painting in Photoshop and Painter. When I want to work on the Cintiq I need to make it the main monitor, but for everything else I want to keep the Cinema Display as the main display.

What I would love is a one-click-pony to be able to hit either an Applescript or Autumator workflow to be able to switch the main display. I am not versed enough in Applescript to make it work and it's record function doesn't pick up anything when I go through the process. Automator will record up to opening the Display preferences, choosing arrange and clicking on the little menu bar but stops there.

It is somewhat of a minor thing but I do it enough for it to be annoying. Any help would be much appreciated.
