Steam seems to have finally updated their archaic big picture mode from a UI designed when 720p gaming was still a big thing, to a much more modern UI that looks like it's been nicked from the Steam Deck.
However it's now not doing what it used to do which was: Automatically change the monitors around in Windows 11, to make the TV the 'Main Display' - which was the main benefit to me of using Big Picture mode because I have a desktop monitor and a large screen OLED TV that I tend to play games on.
Big Picture mode had options which used to allow you to select which monitor to use and then it would launch all games on that screen.
This new UI doesn't seem to allow you to change the monitor it uses, or even the resolution of the UI? Am I missing something glaringly obvious?
