Bug Description
On a laptop with a built-in display (Internal GPU) and external monitor (discrete GPU). I use the proprietary NVIDIA driver in Performance mode.
If in Settings->Displays I select the external monitor to be the primary one and I want the dock to appear on the primary display (the external monitor) in Settings-
If I select it (Dell) the dock is moved the the real built-in display.
If the built-in display is the primary display - everything is fine.
