Say, I set Kerbal Space Program to start on monitor 1, and then launch The Talos Principle which I want on monitor 2, but since none of those games have a window title they all start on monitor 1.
Does anyone have any solution to this? As it is, I have to regularly create and delete a Window Rule entry for title-less windows.
Games that do have a window title work as supposed, I create a rule that is specific to that game and it doesn't interfere with others.
Maybe someone knows of another way to target games for specific monitors (assuming the game itself doesn't gave that option, naturally. Only a few do).
I usually set my preferences in the special window settings. This always worked for me.
Since I only have to do that once and I don't start a new game every day this doesn't bother me much.
When I used special application settings I had the same problem.

By doing this I've also managed to separate the regular Steam window from Big Picture, meaning I can now run Steam on one monitor and Big Picture on another!
