Dialog box for "insert link" in Thunderbird spans multiple monitors

I run two monitors. I have Thunderbird running in one monitor. When I use the "insert link" function, TB pops up a dialog box. The dialog box should be centered within the TB window, but instead it is centered across the entire two monitor display, with the dialog box split in half between the two monitors. Is there a UI tweak to fix this?

on my Windows device, if I drag the box to another location, it opens there next time I insert a link

Tried that. Multiple variations, closing TB and reopening. Multiple test emails with links included, dragging the insert link dialog to middle of single monitor each time.

Dialog box comes back in same split-across-monitors position each time.

Does not seem to remember dialog position at all.

Restarted with all add-ons disabled. TB came up in primary monitor. Opened new message, inserted link. Dialog came up center of message window. Dragged it to 2nd monitor, inserted link, sent test email. Opened new "new message" window, tried to insert link. Dialog came up split across both monitors.

Moved TB to 2nd monitor. Opened new message, tried to insert link, dialog came up between monitors.

So problem only occurs when TB main window or other dialog is on external monitor whether add-ons are enabled or not.
