I'm having a problem with my system for some time. I've been hitting this problem for some time. I looked for people with a problem similar to mine but found none. I use 3 monitors in portrait mode 24" each(1920x1080;1920x1200;1920x1080).
What I want What I have

I keep on getting a weird virtual gap between them and I can lose icons and opened window apps there. I have a GTX1080Ti for GPU and My DE: MATE 1.18.2.
. I want to have the gap gone like the monitors are really close to each other, I would like the reverse action of this post Stretch window over two monitors with "gap" in between . I think something might be done with xrandr
here but I just can't figure it out, here is my config:

1920
is the width in landscape mode, so becomes the height in portrait mode. Your config starts each monitor 1920 pixels from the start of the last monitor, so there's a 700-900 pixel gap between them:
+0 +1920 +3840
+------+ +--------+ +------+ total: 4920w x 1920h
| | | | | |
|1080w | |1200w | |1080w |
| 1 | | 2 | | 3 |
| | | | | |
+------+ +--------+ +------+
| | | |
840 gaps 720
The overall geometry is in the xrandr
output. Notice the starting X positions are multiples of 1920 -- you'd expect that in landscape mode, but not in portrait where the widths are smaller:
Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 4920 x 1920 [<== total]
DVI-D-0 connected primary 1200x1920+1920+0 left [<== WidthxHeight+StartX+StartY]
...
HDMI-0 connected 1080x1920+0+0 left [<== WidthxHeight+StartX+StartY]
...
HDMI-1 connected 1080x1920+3840+0 right [<== WidthxHeight+StartX+StartY]
...
What you want:
+0 +1080 +2280
+------++--------++------+ total: 3360w x 1920h
| || || |
|1080w ||1200w ||1080w |
| 1 || 2 || 3 |
| || || |
+------++--------++------+
You don't provide an exact xrandr command that you use to achieve what you have, but I think this will get what you want (I'm not certain about the rotations; they're from your xrandr
output):
xrandr --output HDMI-0 --rotate left --pos 0x0
--output DVI-D-0 --rotate left --right-of HDMI-0
--output HDMI-1 --rotate right --right-of DVI-D-0
Thank you so much. It worked perfectly!! <3 Thanks for the help !!!

You don't provide an exact xrandr command that you use to achieve what you have, but I think this will get what you want (I'm not certain about the rotations; they're from your xrandr
output):
xrandr --output HDMI-0 --rotate left --pos 0x0
--output DVI-D-0 --rotate left --right-of HDMI-0
--output HDMI-1 --rotate right --right-of DVI-D-0
