MacOS top menu bar dropdown menus are not recorded and sent to display link screens

Hi,

I installed the latest displaylink app and I noticed that the top menu bar's dropdown menus are not visible on displaylink connected screens. The dropdown menus exist and are clickable if you click in the location they should be but the displaylink is not capturing the menu render and send it to the displaylink screen.

I am referring to the dropdown menu has the About Finder, Settings, etc options. On the displaylink screen they are invisible and the window or background behind them is shown as normal.

Does anyone else have this issue or know how to show the top menus on displaylink?
