Not sure if this is a bug or not, but if I'm running multiple monitors, RunActivity always opens up on the primary monitor, even if Menu is running on the secondary monitor.

Is there not a way to sense the window/monitor position of where the app is called from? I'm having to keep dragging windows across monitors, which is a minor nuisance, but I'd think there would be a way to persist where the last window was opened, no?

RunActivity and Menu are separate executables that communicate via command-line arguments. So while it would surely be possible to transmit positioning information, RunActivity doesn't have any innate knowledge of which monitor it was launched from.

I'm sure this behavior could be changed, but making that change might not be immediately possible due to the ongoing Monogame merge.
