Bug Description
I use a laptop with external monitor in a dual display set-up.
The "Screen Display" tab of Settings application correctly shows:
Display 1 as the built-in display
Display 2 as the external monitor
If I go to the new "Appearance" tab I see that the Dock is set to display on the Built-in display but it is actually being displayed on the external monitor. If I change this setting to display on the external monitor it displays on the laptop's built-in display.
Once set to "All displays" the setting can not be unset and the dock insists on being displayed on both the laptop's built-in display and the external monitor.
I used the Dconf editor to set
org.gnome.
