Scaling and multiple monitor, submenu opening speed

from Stardock Forums

I recently switched from classic start menu to Start10.   Classic start menu decided to stop development.

I have 2 monitors (high resolution with scaling).   Monitor 1 start button shows the menu nicely, but Monitor 2 shows the menu in the upper right hand side of Monitor 1 instead of right above the taskbar where you would expect it.

I configured a number of right hand site items to "Display as menu", but when clicked, it can cause variable delay in displaying the menu.   Control Panel is the slowest at up to a 1 minute or more.

Has anyone else noticed these issues?

No change.   It is not the installation, it is the software, it just can't handle multi-monitor situations with various scaling options.

Please try the clean boot steps to see if there is conflict. https://forums.stardock.com/486022/start10-support-faq#cleanboot

Is your configuration 100% on each monitor?   The second monitor is configured with at least 150%.  These problems do not usually happen due to resolution alone but when scaling comes into play.

Nope, not on my system. I've set my 1st monitor at 150% and 2nd stay at 100%. not problem.
