Bug Description

Lubuntu 20.04 LTS

NOTE: I've reported this before, in comment with other reports, so i need to check this is not a duplicate. I didn't see it in a quick search before this filing, but I'll look some more..

Using Monitor settings to adjust displays so they are next to each other, I purposely leave a gap (see attached pic monitor_settings.jpg) then drop and click apply.

My expectation is that the screens do not overlap. The bug could be in Monitor.Settings; upstream claim overlap isn't possible anymore though I believe (and blamed openbox as they couldn't reproduce it). I'll need to explore some more.

On either display now, if I click the maximize on any window , a tiny slither of it will be visible on the other window. I'll attach two more pictures in the coming minutes.

photo of screen with window maximized in description (screenshot was comment #2)
Expectation is the maximized window doesn't appear on my right display; alas it does on left edge of display (the white slither, even part of cursor appears)

This problem occurs with images that are maximized on right display too, with them appearing as slither on right edge of left display
