        @sdetweil Thx for your help.
        In fact, x is the abscissa of the letf corner of your MM. So, you have to take in account if there 's a second screen on the left. In this case, x would be the width of the left screen. If not, x would be 0.

          @Axel51 said in how can I display MM on my 2nd screen (just one pi 4):

          x is the abscissa of the letf corner of your MM

          eh?

          if u have two screens left and right, in port 0 and 1

          then to get MM to display on the right monitor, in port 1, u need to set x to the width of the left monitor (port 0),

          and If you are doing above and below

          y (instead of x), the height of the monitor 0 in pixels.

          on my desktop in use x:1920
          on my pi i use x:3840 (running in 4k mode)
