keycastr does not work well in multiple screens

[TheOnlyAndLastOne]

when I use an external screen, keycastr only works with one of them, I tried several times and find that keycastr works with the screen witch I first open it, it means when I want to show the keypress on the other screen, I have to quit keycastr, move to the other screen and reopen keycastr again, my sys is MacBook Pro M1, macOS Big Sur 11.2.3, I don't know if this happens on other sys, if so I wish it can be a configuration option in the later version.

You should be able to drag the KeyCastr visualizer to display you like in a multi-display setup. And it will show up on any "desktop" if you are using multiple desktops on that display.

Could you describe your setup in more detail? How many displays are connected and what is the layout?

I can drag the KeyCastr display to my external monitor, but not if that external monitor has a fullscreen app on it.

Sadly this may be a limitation with how windowing and fullscreen apps currently work in macOS. There are some subtle differences in fullscreen behaviors when you have multiple displays attached. I'll try some additional testing, but you may have better luck using only one display when you want to use KeyCastr on top of a fullscreen app.
