Problem with 2 monitors at one computer

Posted · Problem with 2 monitors at one computer

Hello,
I work with Windows 10 and 2 monitors. The main monitor is "extended" by the second monitor. Both monitors are connected to one graphics card.
 

When I start Cura 5, the window where the plugins are loaded always appears on the second monitor. Cura itself is then started on the main monitor.
If I then start the marketplace from Cura, or print via Octoprint, both dialogs are displayed on the wrong second monitor.
Dragging and dropping the dialog or moving it does not change anything.
If I start Cura 4.13.1, both work correctly and it is always displayed directly on the main monitor.


If only one monitor is connected it works correct. I wrote this in a german facebook group and there are more users with the same problem.

Any ideas for a solution?

I am about to completely give up on Cura because of the constant issues with multiple monitors. This has always been an issue and always had to do some kind of work around (unplugging monitors etc.). How about instead of a work around, Ultimaker fix the issues. I bet over 90% of users have multiple monitors.

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
