Panel "Dropdowns" appear on wrong monitor
If the Panels are on a second/external monitor on Mac OS, Illustrator renders the dropdown information (ie font size, stroke width, arrowhead type, rotation, Transparency type) not on the second monitor, but back on the Main monitor/iMac.
The example shown has the latest build, with panels on the right monitor and artboard on the iMac screen. Trying to select from the Stroke Width drop down menu puts the options on the iMac screen instead of within the Stroke Panel.
Photoshop doesn't do this, so it's not an Apple thing. Illustrator team, please fix this!

Which of these two monitors are the leading one? Is Ai opened on a secondary or the main one?
Does the behavior change if you move the app frame to the other dsiaply? -

Im having this same issue. I found if my external apple monitor is set to my main screen the dropdowns display on my laptop. This needs fixing.
