Anyone else got two-monitor issues with LC9 on Mac?

[Brian Milby]

@Graham, to determine if the 2 are related to the same underlying issue,
you should adjust your monitor layout so that the tops align. If the
problem goes away, then they are related (even if not identical). If the
problem doesn’t go away, then it is a new issue. That will be something
that is good to know when working on this issue.
