If you position the Stage such that most of it is still on the primary screen (thus the Stage is drawn using the scale of the primary screen), with a menu, a control with a context menu, or a control with a Tooltip now on the secondary screen, the popup window for the menu or Tooltip will be drawn using the screen scale of the secondary window and thus won't be positioned or sized correctly relative to the menu bar, or control in the main window.
