Remember which display to use for pop-ups when working with designer using multiple monitors

If one is working with multiple monitors in the designer some time the pop up screen, eg when editing a tag, will pop up on the screen you are working on and sometimes on the left most screen. Can the designer be made to remember where this popup was when last used so it is not necessary to drag it to the best position each time

Can Inductive fix the issue with the Popup windows in Designer appearing in other Monitors?
even when i have the monitors disconnected from my Laptop, whenever i try to open the tag editor or a property for one of the components, the window opens somewhere else even when there's no other monitors and my design session becomes inoperable beacuse i can't reach that popup window

Another vote for remembering monitor selection Designer plus- I use a PC which sometimes requires a J5create(R) JC374 for extra ports notably cable modem RJ-45. In some cases, the second HDMI port of the PC itself gives me the second monitor ( Dell Inspiron ) and access is wireless, mouse uses one USB port. When concentrating hard on aligning drawings, second monitor can hold other information such as spreadsheet for Tag tracking. I have no fiduciary ( money ) interest in either of the Companies mentioned, yet I do have an interest in keeping my own life as simple as possible. Thanks for doing so.

I often have multiple Designer sessions open because I support different projects at multiple production sites. The popup location should be specific to the Designer session. It can be confusing when the popups from different projects on different monitors pop-up in the same location.
Floating Shared Scripts is another popup that should have the same behavior.

The drop down component of the vision module behaves like this if they open it on one window and move it to another.

As part of this, can you make windows aware of the monior size of the monitor they are on? My right most monitor is portrait, my main monitor is landscape. The designer always thinks in on the portrait one. This is in Ubuntu 14.4
