Ignition 8.1.16, Multi-Monitor Layout Causes Pop-Up Calendar Position Issues

When using the pop-up calendar component in the multi-monitor setup described below, the calendar behaves inconsistently depending on which monitor the client is running on.

  • On Monitor 1, the pop-up calendar displays correctly.

  • On Monitor 2, the pop-up calendar opens at the top of Monitor 1 instead of Monitor 2.

  • On Monitor 3, the pop-up appears significantly offset, displaying much lower than the associated drop-down button.

The issue went away after reconfiguring the monitor layout so that all displays were arranged in a single horizontal row.

All displays are the same resolution and scaling. The components are simply placed in the root container of a main window.

Is there any solution for this issue so the pop-up calendar behaves as expected regardless of the overall Windows multi-monitor arrangement?

This sounds like a bug that has been fixed, but I don't recall exactly. 8.1.16 is really old. You should upgrade and see if the problem persists. (Or spin up a test VM with a new version and try with that.)
