Sometimes drop-down or contextual menus appear at the wrong position on the screen. | |
Upon moving the parent window, it appears that the menu position is not updated. They still appear at the same position. | |
To reproduce with affected applications, open app, open drop-down menu, move app window, open same drowpdown menu - observe that the menu has not moved with the window and is subsequently now appearing at a wrong position. | |
If the window is resized, the menus get re-aligned. | |
Weston 3.0.0 | |
(running in DRM mode) | |
There is such a bug in sway too. But over there it seems to affect everything (pcmanfm, lxterminal, subl, chromium...) | |
Affected: | |
firefox | |
chromium (Contextual menu) | |
xnview | |
virtualbox | |
vlc | |
(vlc, virtualbox and xnview have similar looking menus, I guess they use the same toolkit) | |
thunar | |
Not Affected: | |
lxterminal | |
weston-terminal | |
geeqie | |
pcmanfm (might be affected - drag and drop don't work) | |
lxmusic | |
inkscape | |
libreoffice | |
subl (Sublime Text 3) | |
Generally anything GNOME or LXDE | |
Dropdowns in PCManFM prefernces seems to work OK, but dropdowns in exo-preferred-applications are broken. | |
Yet these two look very similar, I think they use the same toolkit. |
