0.96: slideshow always on the first screen [Solved]

XnView: MP 0.96.4 - 64 bit
OS: Windows 10/64bit

I'm using a Laptop and an external screen with the "extended desktop" option. Laptopscreen is "1", external is "2".
in the options / View / full screen I have ticked "Double monitor : use second monitor".

However, when running a slide show, I will show on the screen 1 (laptop screen).

I have tried starting and closing XNView on any of these two screen (XNView remembers correctly in which screen it last ran), and then starting a slide show either with XNView on screen 1 or on screen 2 -> always the same result : the slide show is on the screen one.
This is a problem as I would like to use XNView with a video beamer, with which I will probably have the same problem.
I have searched a bit and not found a solution, nor a recent bug report, this is why I have decided to file a bug .... but perhaps it is not one.

Thanks in advance for looking into this, I have been a great fan of XNView for many years.

Oh, OK, yes it does. Sorry, I hadn't found the information that the slideshow would start on the screen on which the slideshow-dialogue was moved to. It works just fine. Thanks.
