That has to be a Win10 problem because the HMC (8.8.6.2) does the same
thing.
Worse, it remembers that I had an external monitor once, and if so it loads
the window into the same place, even though it's not there anymore. (Moving
the window fixes it)
Bottom line, I think that's a windows behavior not RDi or HMC.

And indeed it looks like the notifications and popups _always_ go to the
primary monitor, no matter where the IDE is.
Not good...

Hi Ken,
I'm indeed on Win10, so it may be that it's related to the "primary
monitor".
However, I would expect notifications (and the popup in Rdi) to appear on
the monitor where the program is.
I'll see what happens if I make the external screen "primary".

Peter,
Are you using Windows 10? In the system display properties, you can
determine you "primary" monitory.
Somehow, my windows primary monitor on windows keeps being flipped. Somehow,
my desktop icons went to my secondary monitor.
So, once again I have to manual my primary monitor in Win-blows 10.
Welcome to Windows 10! The interface, features, and navigation change all
the time! Isn't that Great? <sarcasm>
They make colors harder to see, and think that is great. They obviously hate
people with Tri-Focals like myself. NO WAY I am USING that Stupid
"HIGH-CONTRAST" mode for the legally blind. <rant>
My Mom has been blind since 16, and they keep changing navigation! Blind
people have to MEMORIZE key-strokes, and with Windows 10 constantly
changing, that discriminates AGAINST Blind People!
But, that is the Microsoft way, change the interface/navigation constantly.
I can see, 20/20, and it drives me NUTS!!!! At least the basic navigation
for RDI has remain consistent! Thanks RDi Team!
Sadly, windows 10 monitor primary has been around for a long time. I believe
it has NOTHING to do with RDI 9.6.0.1. At least that is my bet!

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.
