Hello,
I have a two monitor setup. I have been using DF in windows seven for several years now and I cannot remember ever having this partyicular issue: I recently downloaded DF to a new Windows ten system. When I drag a tab from the Firefox tabs bar from monitor one and try to drop it and open it on monitor two the tab/page opens for a split second on monitor two and then jumps back to monitor one in a new window. I then have to click the "Move Windows to Next Monitor: button at the top of monitor one to get the page to move to monitor two. Is there a fix for this? Thank you.
Just to confirm the issue, you drag a tab from Firefox to separate it into it's own window. Then move that tab window to monitor #2 and release it and it snaps back to monitor #1?

We haven't been able to reproduce the issue here yet, would you be able to record a video of the issue happening so we can see exactly what's going on? Thanks!

I apologize for taking so long to respond. This is not a very good video but I believe it shows the issue. In the video I am grabbing a web page from monitor #1 and dragging and dropping it onto monitor #2. As you can see after dropping the web page into monitor #2 it immediately snaps back to monitor #1. Thank you for your time.

Thank you for the clarification. See attachment.
No worries, thanks! It looks like you've got a Trigger rule that moves all new Firefox windows to the left monitor. When you drag the tab out, it creates a new window and then the DisplayFusion Trigger sees it and moves it to the left monitor.
If you only want the first Firefox window you open to move to the left monitor, you can change the "Frequency" drop-down in the Trigger rule to "Once-per-process name."
Hope that helps!
