Could you also please post a picture so I fully understand the problem? I tested on windows 10 before the release and it worked for me.

Have same problem

But I have two screens 1366x768 and 1920x1080 in extend mode, same dpi, scale in system 100%. OS is Win10. Info box appears near right bottom corner of first screeen (maybe good solution is show box in center of each screen).

Also strange size of left toolbox menu, when I open in by click it contains bottom scroll)- maybe need to solve in new issue.

Aslo problem with change screens (RDP or connect/disconnect external laptop screen): mask appears in old screen coordinates and size. I fix it with restart app. - maybe need to solve in new issue.

Also problem if screens with different dpi's.

Second image -- after restart program position of box on mask

Kinda makes sense I guess. My hypothesis is that the message box is located at the 25% of the total width and 50% of the total height. What I mean is that the two monitors create a large canvas and Flameshot sees there are two monitors, and simply divide the width to two. In the case that both monitors have the same dimensions you wouldn't see the issue (as 25% of width would be exactly in the center of the left monitors), but since your monitors are having different dimensions this issue is recognisable.

Third image -- how left menu looks

The above explanation also explains why you don't see the sidebar's Close button which is located at the bottom of it.
