user022221  Sorry, I'm not aware of any recent tickets that are affecting Mac multi-monitor clients. 

 

Are there any updates from Apple for your operating system?

 

How is the secondary monitor attached physically?

 

If this just started happening, can you also confirm the LMI software version running there?

I downloaded the Version 4.1.7632 (PlugIn: 1.0.2688) LMI and my Mac is up-to-date with MacOS Big Sur Version 11.2.1 (20D74)

My second monitor is attached via an USB Cable (I downloaded the most recent software via DisplayLink).

I noticed that since I have this issue on the top on my screen  the name of my monitor is mentioned twice (on 2 lines)   

Before there was only one line with the name of my monitor.

When I click on these 2 lines, my screen is minimized and can be moved and when I release the click the size of the screen comes back as normal.

Any idea?

Thanks,

    user022221  Can you also tell us what operating system the host computer is running, and if there are any driver updates available from the manufacturer (if it's Windows)?
