Power BI Desktop Displays incorrectly on Extended Display

Extended Screen PBI desktop double windows 

 When attempting to use Power BI Desktop on an extended screen the windows incorrectly. Each window/pane is ghosted as shown in the example screen shot. This only occurs on an extended monitor.  Using Windows 8.2 OS and the latest Power BI desktop Version: 2.56.5023.942 64-bit (March 2018)release.

 

Please advise of possible causes.

Thanks

Sam,

Thanks for the help.

 

The latest version 2.56.5023.1021 did not resolve the issue.

But setting the same level of scaling for all screens did work as a temporary work-a-round.

We still need to have the ability set different scaling for each display as needed using the windows. 

Should I make this as resolved or unresolved since this is a temporary work-a round?

Or, report is somewhere as a bug.

Thanks

Bruce
