I see.  Well I just started Gnome in a Virtual Box VM after giving it 3 screens.  I
do not see what you're seeing.  Since this is a VM I can only run Gnome Xorg and not
Wayland.  Do you know which you are running?

Also, the applications are starting at the size when they were last closed.  So, if I
right-click on the menu bar of the app and pick Maximize it will start Maximized the
next time it is started.  If I Unmaximize it, it will then start at whatever size the
window was when it was unmaximized.  (Hope that isn't confusing)

FWIW, the sizes of my 3 screens are....

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 4936 x 1279, maximum 16384 x 16384
VGA-1 connected primary 2488x1279+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm
x 0mm
   2488x1279     59.99*+

VGA-2 connected 1304x799+2488+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm
   1304x799      59.96*+

VGA-3 connected 1144x796+3792+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm
   1144x796      59.95*+
