F3 on tablet moves window back to main screen

Hello,
I'm trying to use Verve with a drawing display tablet. When I press F3 to make it fullscreen without borders, it moves the window off the tablet back to the monitor. Is there a workaround for this?

OS: Windows 11
Tablet: XP-PEN Artist15.6 Pro

Thanks!

I figured it out! It's actually quite simple. I'll leave my question and this work-around here for anybody else who has the same problem and comes here to ask about it.

Work Around:
Right-click on the desktop and select "Display settings"
Go to System > Display (which is probably already open)
It will show all your displays, numbered 1, 2, ...
Click Identify and note which number appears on your tablet screen.
Select that display in the settings window and tick the box by "Make this my main display"

You're all set! Open Verve on your tablet and press F3 to verify that it works now.

Thanks :)
I'm very excited about learning to use Verve Painter and, well, learning how to paint. I'm just getting started as an artist. (It feels a little presumptuous to use that word, honestly.)

Just enjoy the journey. It's a beautiful calling, but continue to listen to your heart, especially when it gets difficult or frustrating for a moment. Learning means challenging yourself, but it also challenges you to learn about yourself. It's a core part of being an artist, finding out what your ideals are and how you share them with the world.

Anytime you want advice, never hold back to come here with it. We're all learning from each other here! c:!
