Description
- Have PoB maximized on one screen (main display setting doesn't matter, always reproduces on my right screen)
- Close PoB to save
SimpleGraphic.cfg, results in:
set vid_mode "8"
set vid_fullscreen "0" // This seems suspicious
set vid_resizable "3"
set vid_last "1920,1017,0,23,1"
- Open PoB again, find it on the same screen you closed it on
- Minimize PoB, restore PoB, find that it appears on the other window
- Note this only happens after restarting
