When i close remote desktop, all docks still on screen 1. i have to place again docks on screen 2 manually.

No, not at present. However, there's a simple work-around - when you are going to work from another system with remote desktop, you should set Winstep on your system to a single monitor profile with the secondary monitor switched off. That way, your docks on the second monitor will not show on the primary monitor.

If you're not familiar with monitor profiles, do a search here, there is plenty of info and guidance here already.

When the Dock is configured to appear at the bottom of your screen, it's available on whichever screen you’re working on. Just move your pointer to the bottom of either display. When the Dock is configured for the left or right position, it appears on the leftmost or rightmost display edge.

Tip: If you don't see your dock because it's set to hidden or there's a full screen app on the display, move your pointer to the location of the Dock. If the Dock still doesn't appear, swipe your pointer towards the Dock again to unhide it.

I also had a similar problem when I bought myself a new /]BenQ monitor and installed the old one as an additional one. Unfortunately, the system does not remember the "binding" of the software to a particular display. All these processes need to be configured anew each time.
