Displaced menus with secondary screen

Hello Paul-Antoine,

I don't have a specific idea what could cause this particular problem...
Can you reproduce this with other Qt applications (or maybe KDE
applications)?

Asking the duck yielded [1] on the first go that might be related. They
mentioned that preconfiguring the monitor layout in the Xorg
configuration might help, but that is not a really a solution IMHO, more
like a workaround.

Best regards, Adam.

Thank you Adam for your quick answer.
As regards other Qt applications, I just tested with VLC and I actually got the very same problem. So it seems that it is a general issue from the Qt library, not from qpdfviewer. I am going to inquire in this way.
Meanwhile, I will try to use the proposed workaround.

Thanks again for your help.
