[bug] Ctrl+B opens Glyph away from the active cursor/window on Windows OS #2

Description

@StDensity

What happened?

On Windows, pressing the global shortcut (Ctrl+B) opens Glyph at the top-left of the primary display instead of near the place I am currently working.

With multiple monitors, Glyph appear in the top left of the primary monitor and not the active monitor.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Launch Glyph on Windows.
  2. Use multiple monitors, or move the cursor away from the top-left of the primary display.
  3. Focus that app/window.
  4. Press Ctrl+B to open Glyph.
  5. Observe where the Glyph window appears.

Expected behavior

Glyph should open near the current cursor position, similar to the Windows clipboard history popup.

Expected placement behavior:

  • Show Glyph below the cursor when there is enough space.
  • If there is not enough space below the cursor, show Glyph above the cursor.
  • Keep Glyph fully inside the current monitor’s visible bounds.
  • Prefer the monitor containing the cursor, so multi-monitor setups open Glyph where the user is actually working.

Actual behavior

Glyph opens at the top-left of the primary display instead of near the current cursor or active display.
