See point 4 in official Ubuntu help - does it not work for you? If not, please gather logs and attach here.

Hello,

This does not work.
When setting one of my external screen as primary (i.e. having application laucher on it) it does nothing.
The launcher remains on my laptop panel.

Can you point the logs I need to give in order to debug this ?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Hum,

Please consider this "case" as closed.
I installed my laptop using Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and now I can correctly select my primary screen.

Seems to be related to Ubuntu 14.04 software.

Thanks a lot !
