Crash on dual monitor w/ layers window move

dick_freebirddick_freebird
in KLayout Support

Seen this a couple of times in a row. If I drag
the Layers window out of the pack onto the
same (starting) screen, OK. But if I drag it across
the "boundary" to the other monitor, I get a crash
message popup that quickly disappears and it's
all gone.

This is Windows binary installed, 0.28.7

Will have to see about Linux but I have no dual
monitor Linux setup working, currently.

    Hi @dick_freebird

    Are those monitors of a different quality - specifically one is "high DPI" (e.g. 4K) and the other isn't? In that case, resolution switching must happen. Maybe there is an issue with the Qt5 I am using as of now. I do little there with respect to monitor or resolution switching. My expectation is basically that Qt will handle that case without crash, but also without particular grace (see issue tracker on GitHub).

    I am using KLayout on a two-monitor configuration in Windows, but both of my monitors are of the same kind ("low DPI") and I never saw the crash you describe.

    The screens are both 4K, but one is the laptop
    built-in and one's a Philips 27" via HDMI.
