@Fredi009 u have to add an entry to the second MM config.js

config = { 
  electronOptions:{x:????}

etc rest of normal config

??? is the width of the 1st display (1920 or 3840 have worked for me)
I am currently using , on my linux machine with 2 screens

electronOptions: { x: 1920 }

Now i have session 1 on the left screen and session 2 on the right.
