Description of issue / Feature request

Congrats on getting to 2.0 - the UI looks nice !

Just installed 2.0.0beta1. Was on 1.9.2 (?) before, both displays working as expected (I run with all displays, independent). In 2.0.0beta1 - my secondary display stays black. I have tried toggling the display setting as well to no avail. Rebooted as well. Will attach the AerialLog.txt file once I submit. Thanks.

FYI I found the bug, it was the same bug that caused the sidebar to not be expanded at startup in beta 1 !

I'll put up a beta 2 tonight with that fix amongst others.

Hi @vom513

Looks like I broke that specific mode 馃檲 I just checked here and replicated your issue, I'll track it down tomorrow, sorry about that. All the other modes work fine (cloned, spanned...), which is even more weird, but I suggest you switch to one of those in the meantime. Thanks for the report !

Oh wow - thanks for the super quick reply ! No worries at all, glad you were able to confirm/replicate it at least.

@vom513 took a bit longer than I thought but build is here with the fix : https://github.com/JohnCoates/Aerial/releases/tag/v2.0.0beta2

Yep - looks good now. Thanks much !
