By default, `x`, `y`, and `length` style options refer to the combined screen surface, but you can specify a monitor for the bar, for example you can set option `monitor = "HDMI-1"` to show the bar only on `HDMI-1` (use `xrandr` command to get monitors names).

-xob works well under multihead setups but there is no easy way to
-configure the position of the bar for now.
-For example, in a dual monitor setup with the default configuration, the
-horizontal centering is not local to one of the two monitors.
-It is global.
-The bar might be split in two: one part on each screen.
-Stick to a corner or use absolute positioning.
-If you want an xob instance to be centered (horizontally) on the
-far-right monitor, set \f[I]x.relative\f[R] to 1.0 (anchored on the far
-right) and the \f[I]x.offset\f[R] to minus half the width of that
-screen.
