Additional information

At least under KDE/Wayland, this doesn't work as intended. I have no Xorg setup anymore to test if this is Wayland-only though.

E.g. I have a 3-monitor setup, with the left monitor being turned 90° (see below). The center monitor has the highest priority, followed by the right and left monitors. However, the presentation always starts on 90°-turned left monitor. I haven't found any way to force the presentation window to another screen. Even If I make the application start on the middle or right screen, the presentation always goes to the left screen.

Thinking of how many possible configurations exist out there I believe it would be best if we had the possibility to chose the screens for the presentation and the notes before starting the presentation (e.g. displaying a small window with the detected screen layout and being able to select the screens by ourselves).
