Thanks for working on this Daniel. Your supposition is likely an the right track. Before I started on this consulting assignment (the beginning of this year) I was using two external monitors, one on my desk at home, and one at school. They were different. I also was using some projectors in classrooms that were different yet. It really behaves like some part of the system thinks the screen is smaller than it is. Last year I was using 1920x1080, because I could put smaller text on the external monitor. Now I have just this laptop, and so I changed the resolution to 1600x900. I think that is about when I started noticing this. I moved the monitors.xml, and rebooted. It hasn't reappeared, and it sometimes took a little time before I noticed it, so I'm not ready to say that fixed it. I'll let you know if it didn't and supply you with the xrandr output then too.
Again, thanks for looking at this. It was kind of annoying, though I could expand and contract the window, and that one would be good for a while.

Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: This happens with a number of different programs, so I suspect it is a window manager bug. The best way to describe it is with a screen shot. The only responsive part of the screen is the small window in the upper left. You can hit the little maximize box and it goes back to full screen okay, but after a while it comes back to this. It can be annoying, because sometimes you can't quickly see what happened to the title bar. I'm using Ubuntu 19.10. This has been happening for about a week.
