[LH4669] Not sure if this is a bug, exactly - Misplaced notifications

Could you all please share:

1. Where the notification appears,
2. which version of Scrivener you are using (Hi-DPI or standard),
3. your screen resolution,
4. Windows display scaling setting,
5. Windows version,
6. and whether you’re on a single or multi-monitor setup?

For me:

1. Upper right corner (whether maximized or not).
   EDIT 1: FWIW, the target session reset notification (reset at a specified time - 10 am) comes up in the middle of the screen.
   EDIT 2: Closed and reopened Scrivener, and another reset notification came up in the lower right corner.
2. RC9 Non-HiDPI
3. 1920 x1080
4. 100%
5. Windows 10 Ent 64-bit version 2004
6. Dual monitor, extended, with the same resolution and scaling factor for both.
   Note: I have the same basic setup as noted in my signature block here at work except that the video card is an AMD Radeon HD 7000 series (7570M).

If you tick the option to “Show internal log console” in File > Options > Warnings, you can restart Scrivener and then also copy out the screen information from the top of the log, from the “Info: devicePixelRatio” line through the “Info: Screen physicalDotsPerInch” line.

Log info:

Info: devicePixelRatio: 1 Info: qt_defaultDpi: 96 Info: qt_defaultDpiX: 96 Info: qt_defaultDpiY: 96 Info: Primary Screen: "" Info: Primary Screen devicePixelRatio: 1 Info: Primary Screen logicalDotsPerInch: 96 Info: Primary Screen physicalDotsPerInch: 92.6073 Info: Screen 1 "" Info: Screen devicePixelRatio: 1 Info: Screen logicalDotsPerInch: 96 Info: Screen physicalDotsPerInch: 92.6073 Info: Screen 2 "" Info: Screen devicePixelRatio: 1 Info: Screen logicalDotsPerInch: 96 Info: Screen physicalDotsPerInch: 92.6073

   EDIT 2: Closed and reopened Scrivener, and another reset notification came up in the lower right corner.

Continued to play around with this and found a consistency with the notification placement;

1. The notification appears in the upper right corner for project and document targets (two different notification settings).
2. The session reset notification appears in the center.

I’ve determined that I want neither of the notification types - I just don’t need that kind of pressure in my life.
