Thanks for the commands. I like the approach of working first with commands.
Now my (single) external monitor works correct. I can see my activities' background and the widgets are placed in correct positions.
Below you see the results. The red marked command did not work, but the blue one did. For both cases I also copied the xrand -q command result.
The second external monitor I cannot test right now, because I first need a signal splitter. However once we know how one external monitor works, the second external monitor should not be to difficult.
As it looks right now the next step would be to write a script and place it at the right position. For this I appreciate your help as well.
