Also....more important is why the filter pop up is on the other screen?

You've identified a bug that we'll have to fix.

Not possible as it was saved immediately after the one that displays OK.

If you would like for me to investigate why that file appears in that manner, you'll have to share the file with me.

I also noticed that when PM+ on my Mac laptop is fullscreen and using it's own "Space", the "Variables" window, if popped-up, opens on the other (default desktop) "space" and switches to it even whenever I try to switch back to the PM+ space.  I think I've seen this with other PM+ dialog windows, too, but won't be able to report them until I replicate the behavior and identify which others I've actually experienced this with.  This seemed related, but if you'd prefer, I can start a new topic with it instead.

Sean,

Pics attached. Laptop is on the right. Ext monitor the left. When I click on the filter dropdown.....the selection window pops up on the very left of the extra monitor?

Do all popup menus in Catalog windows appear in the wrong place, or only those that are in the Organizer?  The Scan to Catalog window has a popup menu to test in the "File Extensions to Include or Exclude" section.

Hopefully it's limited to the Organizer, please also test the 'gear' button in the Filter tab.  Does it appear in the wrong place?

Thanks,

-Kirk

Thanks.  Could I get a screen grab of your Displays control panel?  It should look something like the attached image below.

The scan to catalog pop up also appears at the far left to the attached monitor.

I think it has something to do with the fact that the displays are extended from the laptop on the right to the 27" monitor on the left. The popup window moves as I move the PM window on the laptop screen. When I move the PM window onto the Monitor then the popup has nowhere to "popup" and it does noot display anywhere at all!

Does this happen for popup menus in top-level Catalog windows like "Scan to Catalog"?

If I use just the one display then all works OK also if I duplicate the displays it is also OK. The problem only happens when the displays are Extended.

Thanks.

I'll ask again: Does this happen for popup menus in top-level Catalog windows like "Scan to Catalog"?

Also, did you get my personal message to you to have one of our support engineers work with you to either solve the problem or help them reproduce the issue on one of our systems?

We're still unable to reproduce the problem that you're experiencing.
