Peter,
If you’re on the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, there’s a cumulative update that came out yesterday that includes a fix for a dual monitor problem that sounds similar to what you’re seeing. If you’re running version 1709, see if you have KB4058258 installed. If not, run check for updates to get it.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Weird dual monitor issue
Hi group,
Having upgraded to Rdi 9.6.0.1 late last year, I've noticed an issue that I don't think existed in previous versions of the IDE.
One day a week I work in the Netherlands, where I plug in a 23" monitor (via the VGA port on my laptop) and a strange thing happens:
If I move the RDi window to my secondary display (the external one), the pop-ups for prototypes etc very briefly flash at my cursor location, but then are shown on my laptop panel in the dead center of the screen. Also notifications (I use the iSphere message plugin to receive messages in Rdi) are on the built-in screen, not on the screen where the IDE sits.
The other days, I work with my laptop in a docking station, and have dual 22" external monitors, so I don't use the laptop panel. There the problem doesn't occur.
Does anybody have any clue as to why this is happening?
Thanks in advance.
Met vriendelijke groeten / Best regards,
