Windows 10: Switching the default screen the Xbox game bar appears on.

I'm looking through the settings for the Xbox game bar overlay app on Windows 10 and I don't see an option to switch the default screen the overlay is displayed on. I don't know what sort of option I have to alter this setting without changing my primary screens around and mess with my display. Any ideas?
