When using FL Studio on an extended display, and after the extended display is disconnected, FL Studio does not resize to the built-in display resolution, its window bounds extend beyond the display, and it cannot be resized; critical features such as menus and the transport buttons are out of view and FL becomes unusable without a restart.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open FL and make sure to view it on an extended monitor
2. Disconnected extended monitor
3. FL renders on built-in MacOS display
4. FL's window bounds exceed the bounds of the MacOS display
5. FL controls are out of view and FL window cannot be resized
6. Standard Shift+Command+F shortcut does not resize FL to max window display size (e.g. just like other apps do, like Terminal, VS Code, etc).
Video:
Notice how FL's menus and controls are no longer visible when it moves to the built-in display.
I often work and perform with extended monitors while using FL Studio for both live and studio use. This issue causes a lot of headaches when unplugging from displays, as FL has to be restarted because I can't see its menus.
FL Version: v20.9.2 build 2459
MacOS version: 12.4
MacOS built in display resolution: 1728x1117
Extended monitor resolution: 2560x1440
