    I was playing around more and actually found what is probably the issue. UI Scaling in preferences. If I set it to the smallest panels work correctly. I had it on one up from smallest and that is where the problem is, and happens with all larger options in UI scaling. Been there for many versions. I am at least happy that I have a work around and can live with the smaller UI in hopes that eventually Adobe will fix this glitch.

    This bug has been in Indesign a while now. using Mac OS Sonoma latest updates. This occurred in previous Mac OS's as well. Computer is M1 Max - MacBook Pro. This happens when using an external display, so 2 screens (1 MacBook Pro screen and 2nd via HDMI). Indesign is open on the larger secondary screen. If "Application Frame" is unchecked, opening tool bars snapped to the right side of the screen all open their windows right of the tool bar and thus go off screen. They should open to the left.

    This video shows it working correctly with Application Frame selected. This is on the secondary screen, panels on the right are what I am clicking:

    This is the same thing but with Application Frame turned off. Tool panels are snapped to the right of the screen. When clicked on the windows expand and open to the right of the panels rather then how they should on the left.

    This only happens when an external display is connected. If I quit Indesign, unplug the secondary screen and work off the MacBook Pro screen the panels open correctly with Application Frame turned off.
