I am confused with this structure.
I went through an article by Mike on this topic. He explained a great technique - drop the participle phrase and see if the sentence is making sense.
- This trick is working when the sentence starts with the With+ noun + participle structure.
- When such a structure comes after main clause preceeded by comma, it is not making sense to me.
( I know SC is more about meaning and not about tricks. I just want to ensure my understanding about this structure)

Hi sumit411,
In the construction "clause + comma + with", "comma+with" modifier modifies the nearest preceding ACTION.
Example:
Visitors to the park have often looked up into the leafy canopy and seen monkeys sleeping on the branches, with arms and legs hanging like socks on a clothesline.
here SLEEPING is being modified. how are they sleeping? - WITH ARMS AND LEGS HANGING...
please post your doubts on any specific question you have come across facing this issue.
