Description

Prerequisites

Description

Operating system: Windows 10

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Be in an ongoing break
  2. Connect an additional monitor

Expected behavior: also open break window on the additional monitor

Actual behavior: nothing

Reproduces how often: every time

Additional Information

I noticed this because sometimes I use a (long) break to attach my notebook to my docking station (which means two additional monitors appear at once).

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how stretchly creates break windows and detect monitor connection events. Look at Electron's 'display' API and how the app currently handles multiple monitors.
