LabVIEW
Pop up window position is way off for LV2015
Solved!
When I connected the 2nd curve monitor (3440x1440) and select menu on FP, the pop up is way off from current front panel or block diagram. It is very annoying when you are working on the FP/BD which is close to the edge of the screen because the pop window will be out of screen that you cannot reach, have to move the FP/BD to the right/center of the 2nD monitor. I did play with the scale and resolution of the 2nd monitor but no luck.
Later I found it is related to the LV version. At least LV2015 had this issue but LV2023 do not. So I guess it is a known issue and was fixed in later LV version.
But I have to use LV2015 (which have this issue for old projects), is there any work around or setting I can change for LV2015 ?
Thank you so much!

Most of the floating windows remember their location by saving those locations to the version specific LabVIEW.ini. Simply closing that version and deleting LabVIEW.ini will force LabVIEW to recreate the file with default values and will not effect other versions. You can also edit the file in any text editor to remove the specific floating window keys if you have options that you can't remember.
What you have is similar to this, which is a known issue if you have multiple monitors of different resolutions.
