Problems with Multiple Monitors

[Gabe J]

Yeah, "Displays have separate Spaces" is unchecked. Yes, your script is
moving stack "revMenubar" to near the top of the bottom screen when the top
and bottom screen are left-aligned, but since it is on the bottom screen
(below stacks on the top screen) the stacks above it on the top screen do
not work properly when manually moved. (LC 9.6.1 and macOS Catalina). The
solution is to just always move stack "revMenubar" to near the top of the
top screen.
