Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Widget: Gtk, defect, P3)

Attachment: Submenu overlaps main menu and not aligned with parent menu item

STR:

1. Maximize window.
2. Right-click in the bottom-right corner of page.

What is really problematic is that menus that appear outside of the window cannot be clicked on.
When they are clicked on, their color change from blue (of being in focus as the cursor is hovering them) to white and come back to blue after moving the cursor. What should happen is that the menu disappears and the action is performed.

Clicks are not registered and nothing happens outside of the flickering described.

Kestrel, do you have only one monitor or do you have a multi-monitor setup? I am trying to find out if bug 1606010 is actually a duplicate of this bug because I observed something similar to this one.

I am clearing the needinfo request because I added more information to bug 1606010.

This happened with a single display. Currently the submenu does reliably appear within the bounds of the screen and usually aligned properly with the parent item, however there are still the following issues:

• The context menu does not appear above the cursor when close to the bottom of the screen. This can cause misclicks and misalignment of submenus.
• Submenus cover the parent menu when near the right screen edge instead of appearing on the opposite side.

The first part is fixed in bug 1614062, the second unfortunately not yet.

Can you please test latest nightly under Wayland? A new popup handling code landed there.
Thanks.

Comment 8

[Martin Stránský [:stransky] (ni? me)]

Please re-test with new nightly as it gets another popup fixes.
Thanks.

[Viktor Jägersküpper]

I don't see any of the above mentioned issues with the current Nightly (using a single screen configuration), everything works as expected.

Okay, Thanks.
