I add a custom mode for my monitor using xrandr at boot. It looks like this:

xrandr --newmode "2560x1440R" 241.50 2560 2608 2640 2720 1440 1443 1448 1481 +hsync -vsync
xrandr --addmode HDMI-1 "2560x1440R"
xrandr --output HDMI-1 --mode "2560x1440R"
xrandr --output HDMI-1 --pos 0x0
xrandr --output eDP-1 --pos 2560x360

Starting recently, since I installed Ubuntu 18.04.2 (was using .1 before), even though the monitor isn't connected, that "space" is still there. I can move my mouse out of my laptop screen and it goes over where the monitor would be and gets lost. And screenshots (Print Screen) captures a large blank space as if the monitor were connected.

As I said, this just started happening recently but I don't remember exactly what update caused it. All I know is before I installed 18.04.2, this didn't happen.
