Hi!
Can SyMenu shows only on monitor which contains tray icons?
In some cases fullscreen app on second monitor can overlay on SyMenu :/

The problem is not where the menu appears first but where the submenus open subsequently.

It's a problem with every multiple monitors system that I never solved because... I don't have a multiple monitor system to test the problem smile

An effective workaround is to use a keyboard shortcut to open the menu instead of the mouse. This way you can choose where the menu must pop up in your monitor, and, obviously, you don't have to choose the right side of it.

I change this settings:

Some menus now open in main monitor. But not all.

The shortcut key is not intended to force the menu to open in the main monitor, but in the active monitor.

The workaround only helps to avoid the menu breaking across two screens.

If I right understand now menus must be always open to left side?
But it's not so now.

If you use the related shortcut, the menu must be always open on the left side... in the active monitor.
If you open it with the mouse click it opens where the mouse cursor is.
If it doens't work this way, it's a bug.

Accordingly to your screenshot you haven't changed the default shortcuts.
So you open the menu with CTRL + F1 or the search with SHIFT + CTRL + F1

The scrolling option is not related to the menu opening.

Wow. Ctrl+F1 not works for me. Nothing happen.
Changed to Alt+F1 and now see menu on top left angle. This is not so comfortably but workaround if not often use second monitor.

Thanks. Maybe you add settings for open dropdowns always to left/right side in future version? wink

My intention is to solve the dual monitor problem instead. This way the choose for the right opening direction is on the program.
The problem with the CTRL + F1 is probably due to a conflict with another program that uses the same shortcut.
