Limit gnome 3 panel to just one monitor?

[Matt Jorde <majorde gmail com>]

Problem:

I have 2 monitors of different size an resolution next to each other. The Gnome3 header and footer panels are both spanning across both monitors such that the clock is split between the monitors, and half of the new media notifications are hidden in the dead zone of one of the monitors so I can't read the options.

Goal:

I would love to have the top panel and bottom notification area show up on _only_ the left monitor with the right monitor reserved as just an extra space for windows to live.

It seems like this must be possible because I've searched for this and pretty much every question I've come across shows that the panel only shows up on a primary monitor and they either want it to be on the other monitor, or want it to span both (the opposite of my problem).

I've tried dragging the little panel in the "Display" settings to each monitor and messing with the "primary" settings with xrandr, but no luck so far.

I'd really appreciate any suggestions or advice for moving forward. I wouldn't be surprised if there's some totally obvious thing that I've missed somehow.

Thanks in advance!

P.S. If I configure the right monitor to be _under_ the left monitor the top panel appears only on the left monitor and the footer and new media notifications appears only on the right monitor. However, this is sub-optimal because I have to move windows _down_ on the left monitor to move them to the right monitor.
