Not positioning Discord properly. #10

I just started using this the other day and first I want to say I really like it, but I do have 1 small issue. I have a 3 monitor setup where I use the primary for games/browsing. Monitor 2 has steam pinned to the left side and the friends list sitting on the right side. Monitor 3 has discord pinned to the left side. I also resize discord and steam after dragging them to the side of the monitor they sit on.

After being away for a bit when I come back, steam and the friends list are like they should be, but discord isn't. It seems to remember the size of the discord window, but not the exact location so I have to reposition it again.

I can provide screenshots or any other information if you think it would be helpful.

Update: It's still not putting discord exactly where it's supposed to be, but its closer. It takes only a second or 2 for me to adjust it to normal. Overall this is great software, thanks.

do your monitors power off while you are going? Monitor Keeper might not be doing anything, as it only repositions windows when the number of active monitors changes. When it does so, it uses the same mechanism windows uses to restore the window position after it has been minimized. If something else causes the window to move, perhaps the app itself, Monitor Keeper won't move it back. It's also possible Discord attempts to do its own repositioning in that kind of event, which takes precedence over Monitor Keeper.
