Multiple monitors issue

I've run across a peculiar behavior in Logos 10.  I use 2 desktop monitors.  If I have Logos running on monitor #2 and open up a reading plan layout, it will move my instance of Logos to monitor #1.  If I close that layout and open a custom layout I created, it will then move everything back to monitor #1.  This doesn't happen with all layouts.  Is there something that I've changed in these layouts that causes them to always use the same monitor?

    Mike - THANK YOU!

    I have lived with the same problem Bob describes for years, thinking there was no way to remedy It.

    You made my day - maybe my year!

    I posted too soon. Not working.

    When I went to the options as you suggested, Mike, when I clicked "all desktops," it immediately put my second window on my second monitor. Great!

    I hit update on the layout once it looked good.

    Then I closed everything and opened the layout again and it was all on one monitor, with the second window hidden behind the main one, just like it was before. 

    I've closed the program, restarted Logos, updated the layout several times and no luck.

    Should I have that setting on "all desktops?" Before, it was set to "none" which is the default Mac setting.

    Any other ideas?

    Have you customized the Reading Plan Layout from the QuickStart Layouts? If you see Custom next to it from the Layout menu it might be what's causing your issue.

    No, this is a layout I started from scratch.

    Thanks, though.

    I also started mine from scratch.  I opened the card for another reading plan I had created earlier, but it didn't behave in the same way as the one that switched monitors, so I can't say that it's related to being a reading plan.  Looks like it's still a mystery.
