Revit 2024 material edit sub-menus showing in second screen

[pedruccioli]

Hello. I've just installed Revit 2024 and am testing the new features before scheduling deployment.

When creating/editing a material, the submenu shows on the secondary screen.

Is anyone experiencing the same issue while editing materials with two screens setup? (the properties/browser is on my left screen, while the rest is on the right)

Thanks.

Yep. Just realized the same thing after responding to another post.

Hi I am experiencing the same thing. Did you find a solution?

Also seeing the same issue. Tried swapping monitors and rearranging the display layout, but the problem just went to my non-primary monitor. With the monitor cables switched and the displays rearranged, I set the primary option to the wrong monitor and tested it - that caused the menu to not show up at all. Changing the settings back brought the menu back but still on the wrong monitor. Just updated to the 5/15 release. Still not working.

There were several threads on this when R24 first released. It seems Autodesk is aware, and I'd hope its resolved with the first hotfix.

It seems that this is still not resolved as I am having the same issue.  Has anyone found a solution yet?

Not fixed here, and I have installed 2024.1.

I have the same issue.

Still getting the same result with 2024.1.1.

Maybe all resources have been working on the larger issues with schemas??  Hopefully they'll get back to this soon.

Guess we're stuck with floating the materials palettes onto the screen that the popups appear on to restore normal functionality in the meantime.

Coming up on one year and this is still an issue.  Typical. 🙄

I was able to fix this problem by turning off the Windows Display setting "Remember window locations based on monitor connection," closing Revit, unplugging my second monitor, and reopening Revit using only my primary monitor connected. Once Revit was loaded, I was able to turn my monitor and the Windows setting back on, while maintaining the submenu location on my primary monitor, at least for the time being. Unsure if the issue will occur again yet, but this is a relatively simple fix (until Autodesk updates and removes the bug entirely).

There is another fix for this. Just a little annoying, you may have a end up with a screen at an undesirable scale.

Control Panel - Select Display settings - Adjust the monitor scale and layout display settings. Make sure to set the same value for each monitor in use (e.g. 100%, 125%, 150%, etc).

With two 4k monitors at 150% and my laptop at 125%. Switching my laptop to 150% fixed it. Otherwise my submenu's land in random places. It'd be nice if autodesk allows for different scale screens in the future.
