Hey guys,
Just downloaded Rhino8 (PC) and having issues moving the layer/properties panel to my an extended monitor. I can’t place the layer panel on the monitor and when I do it disappears and I have to reset toolbars for it to reappear. Rhino 7 has no issue with this, is there a setting I’ve forgotten I need to use??
I see there is a topic on this in Rhino for mac issues but can’t see it’s been resolved?
Same problem and strange behavior. The toolbars also, if placed in one of the two display of my multi screen setup are disappering. That make my previous workflow completely unusable and I’m sticking to R7 until solution
We’re looking into this for both platforms:
→ RH-69542 Floating Containers on Mac: floating a container outside of virtual desktop causes container to disappear
Thanks,

We are having troubles replicating this issue on our end, and is unrelated to the issue reported on Mac. Is there any way to get a screen recording of the issue so we can see what it looks like?
I had the same issue with my layer window disappearing if I tried to drag it to my other monitor.
After turning that monitor off, it re-appeared.
So the layer window is getting lost on the second monitor somewhere. My second monitor is vertical (helpful when you have lots of layers and properties)
Hi Steve, I can’t reproduce this here with an internal build; I’ll send you the latest internal build to test in a DM. One thing I do see (which is normal with Rhino) is that when another program has focus, the floating panel on the other monitor in Rhino disappears.
I am having the same issues. In Rhino 7, I used TestHideOnDeactivate that would run every time I opened Rhino to resolve this issue. I transferred all my settings to Rhino 8 but it no longer works as expected. When I click outside of Rhino 8, all the windows disappear.
Just letting you know I’m still experiencing this issue. It’s been happening for some time, and another Rhino 8 user in the office gets the same thing:
If we put our floating panels onto another monitor, they move, resize or can disappear altogether .I have two external monitors and a notebook screen. If I put Rhino on one ext monitor and panels on the other ext monitor, those panels disappear regularly. (I basically can’t use the 2nd monitor for panels anymore)
If I put the panels onto my notebook screen, they rescale until I click or drag them.
I think this is a Windows monitor scale issue perhaps?
Would be great to have this sorted so we can maximise the use of our multi-monitor setup.
