The size of the application widows are restricted to the smaller monitor.

What happened?

A bug happened!

I’m using WinApps with Docker on Debian Linux(Gnome-X11).
I have two monitors connected:

• Dell 27" (2560×1440, landscape)
• Dell 21" (1920×1080, portrait)

When I open Microsoft Office 365, MS Paint, or Notepad, the window height is restricted to the size of the smaller screen.

The window width is fine, and $HOME/.local/bin/windows don’t have this issue.

If I disable the smaller (second) monitor, the problem disappears.

# [MOUNTING REMOVABLE PATHS FOR FILES]
# NOTES:
# - By default, `udisks` (which you most likely have installed) uses /run/media for mounting removable devices.
#   This improves compatibility with most desktop environments (DEs).
# ATTENTION: The Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS) recommends /media instead. Verify your system's configuration.
# - To manually mount devices, you may optionally use /mnt.

REMOVABLE_MEDIA="/run/media"

# [ADDITIONAL FREERDP FLAGS & ARGUMENTS]
# NOTES:
# - You can try adding /network:lan to these flags in order to increase performance, however, some users have faced issues with this.
#   If this does not work or if it does not work without the flag, you can try adding /nsc and /gfx.

# - The value must be specified in seconds (to the nearest 10 seconds e.g., '30', '40', '50', etc.).
# - For RemoteApp RDP sessions, there is a mandatory 20-second delay, so the minimum value that can be specified here is '20'.
