QMac 9.1 bug: app switches monitors when viewing Bills in 2 monitor setup

MontanaKarl

New bug in 9.1 when using QMac in a 2 monitor setup… app switches monitors back and forth.

I run Quicken Mac on my secondary monitor. All interface elements have previously always stayed on that monitor (or the Primary if launched there).

Now, if I go to Bills & Income and select "Edit all Instances" for a bill… the complete app as well as the Bill Details/Schedule dialog move to my primary monitor. If I click Cancel or OK, it all moves back to my secondary monitor where it belongs.

100% reproducible, every time. Incredibly annoying.

If I drag the windows back to the secondary monitor, then they stay there.

Even if for whatever reason I wanted the Bill details dialog on the main monitor (which I don't), the main app window moving around makes zero sense. It should stay glued to wherever it was launched, right?

I've occasionally had dialog boxes or report windows open up on a different monitor than the primary Quicken app, but I can't recall ever seeing the main app window move to a different monitor by itself. That would definitely annoy me if it happened.

Hello @MontanaKarl,

If you send a problem report, please post to this discussion to let me know.

Thank you!

@Quicken Kristina Thanks for reproducing. Now that I had dragged the window back to the secondary monitor, I can't reproduce the issue again. But I sent a problem report just now with the logs.

EDIT: I just reproduced and now know how to do it 100%. The dock is on both monitors of course, and I have the Quicken launch icon set to Options > Assign to > None for monitor. If I launch Quicken from the main monitor dock and drag the main app window to the second monitor, then Quicken stays on the second monitor other than the Bills/Income > Edit All Instances behavior…reapears on primary monitor (where it was launched).

OK, I eventually was able to reproduce this as well. I have to have "Displays have separate Spaces" enabled in System Settings > Desktop & Dock (which I normally do), and then create a second Desktop on the second monitor (which I normally don't). Then if I open Quicken in that second Desktop I can reproduce this problem. If I only have a single Desktop on the second monitor then Quicken stays put, and the Assign option isn't available on the Quicken dock icon.

Thank you both for sharing your progress and findings when trying to replicate this issue!

@MontanaKarl, I see you sent over log files. I have added them to the ticket.

@Jon, If you would like to be added to the ticket, you can send over your log files as well, with the instructions Kristina gave here:

If not, that is ok too! If you do send them, however, let us know so we can add them to the ticket.

Thanks again to you both!
