Bug: Opening a Bible reading plan causes Logos to switch monitors

This is with Logos 8.10 on Windows 10.

With a dual-monitor setup, if I have Logos open in the primary monitor and select a Bible reading plan from the homepage, Logos moves entirely to the secondary monitor.

This doesn't happen for a non-Bible reading plan and doesn't happen if I start from the secondary monitor.

Can anyone reproduce this please?

Thanks, Graham

    I've just reproduced it on my home computer - so not just specific to one machine (though could be related to a particular plan)

    Graham,

    I'm not able to reproduce this. Do you have any Program or Content Scaling turned on? Do you have any OS scaling? Is your Bible Reading Plan layout edited? If so can you provide a screenshot with any changes? This might help me try to reproduce it.

    Hi Philana

    Thanks for looking into this, appreciated.

    I don't have any scaling enabled - either Program, Content or OS (although I might have some scaling at work but can't check at the moment)

    But, yes, the plan is edited as below

    • Bible in the left pane
    • linked study Bible top right
    • reading plan document and notes tool open at the bottom right

    One thing I've just noticed is that even though the plan specifies the NLT, the NIV (my preferred Bible) is being opened.

    Graham,

    It looks like the reason the layout is opening on the secondary monitor is that it is where the layout was positioned when it was last updated. If you pull the layout over to your primary monitor and update the layout it should solve your problem.

    Thanks Philana - that sounds reasonable!

    I’ll give it a go when I am back at my computer

    Appreciated, Graham
