Description Hari Rana 2022-02-08 22:49:15 UTC

Description:
Whenever I open context menus, LibreOffice will open the menus or submenus on my next monitor. Furthermore, LibreOffice opens context menus outside of the applications itself.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use Wayland
2. Open a context menu or submenu on the right side of the screen
3. Notice the menu opening up in the other monitor

Actual Results:
The context menu opens on the other monitor.

Expected Results:
The context menu should open in the same monitor. Furthermore, the context menu should be inside LibreOffice (like most apps) or halfway outside (like recent GNOME (GTK 4) apps), not completely outside.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes



Additional Info:
This only happens on context menus at the right hand side of LibreOffice. And this only happens in Wayland, not in X11 (or Xwayland).

I have only tested it on LibreOffice Flatpak.

I also noticed the dropdown can entirely disappear in some cases, when there is a bit of space between the window and the edge between the two displays.

Reproduced in recent master build, as well as 6.2.0.
