Tray icon is on secondary monitor but popup menu & simulated colour appear on primary monitor. Windows disappear when simulating.

System info: I'm on Arch Linux 6.0.11-arch1-1, using the i3 window manager 4.21.1, and I have a two-monitor setup managed by RandR (xrandr 1.5.1, RandR 1.6). Java is openjdk 17.0.5.

Your program, when run, appears in the i3bar (tray) on the secondary monitor. But unlike the other programs I have there, its popup menu appears all the way over on the primary monitor. The simulated colour also appears only on that monitor. I have seen the other issue that the colour simulation does not appear on the other monitor, but this issue addresses a few other problems as well.

When I activate the simulation, all the windows on the primary monitor disappear and I can only see the wallpaper and the i3bar on it, not the program I'm working in, not the program I've got a preview in, nothing. The simulation works, but my work is not previewable in it.

Another problem is that the simulation disappears when I click anything, but as that is documented intended behaviour, I'm not reporting that as an issue. However, I would really like if this could be activated and deactivated via the tray icon. For example, selecting a colour that fits the best would be way easier if the simulation were constantly displayed over the view.
