Which monitor to use

I have a flow where I look for an image in a subregion of the screen after launching Chrome.  I'm having an issue when PAD launches Chrome on a different monitor.  Does anyone know how to tell PAD to only open on a certain monitor?

    In any image action, there should be an "Advanced" section that needs expanded, and there, the default is to "Search for image on:  Entire Screen."  Change this to "Search for image on:  Foreground window only."  This will only look at the focused window.

    Hello
    PAD will open Chrome on the monitor choosen as you "main" screen in windows.

    Following MichaelAnnis  suggestion, will solve your problem, unless you have more than one of the same images in the window.
