Indeed I receive an output:

--------------------------------
smiddy@3000-N200:~$ nvidia-settings

ERROR: Error querying target relations

The program 'nvidia-settings' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'.
  (Details: serial 676 error_code 2 request_code 140 minor_code 25)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
smiddy@3000-N200:~$ 

--------------------------------

The  line with the ERROR:... comes up when launching the program, while
the other lines come up when clicking on "apply" . I tried the command
"nvidia-settings --- sync", but the result was identical.

I attached my xsession-errors as well.

Title:
  "apply" of multi-monitor setting results in crash

Status in “nvidia-settings” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  After the recent update of nvidia settings, I am not able to apply new monitor setting via nvidia settings anymore.
  After configuration of "X Server Display Configuration" hit hit the "apply" button and then the program simply quit.

  A workaround is to click on "Save to X Configuration file" and restart
  the computer.
