Example file from Calc

If there is a validation list where users could select a value, and they click on the arrow, the list appears for a blink of an eye then disappears.
This used to stay open in 7.0.

Steps to reproduce:
    1. Open attached file
    2. In B2 cell open the validation list with the mouse (keyboard Alt+Down works though)

Actual results:
List opens only for a fraction of a second.

Expected results:
List stays open.

The scenario menu doesn't have this problem, but uses the same dropdown menu
Comment 2 Caolán McNamara 2020-10-07 16:08:13 UTC 
The difference between behaviour seems to just be because of the placement of the menu wrt the launching button. Its not "under" the failing case but to one side.
