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.
indeed that is the expected behaviour, with what you are seeing,
either xinerama is disabled for some reason or otherwise its a
bug....
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.
