Description Andrei Diaconu CLA 2017-12-20 10:58:23 EST
Created attachment 271985 [details]
snippet to reproduce the problem

To reproduce the problem, with the snippet attached 
* open the file menu ALT+F
* press 4 times RIGHT key, until all sub menus are opened
* press again RIGHT button

Now the Edit menu will be opened, but the last popup menu remains visible. What is worse, is that there is no way for a standard user to close it and it remains always-on-top above all windows until application closes.

If cascaded menus depth is smaller, the problem does not occur.

Looks like it's windows specific. 
Doesn't reproduce on Fedora 27, Gtk3.22, Wayland.

Yes it's Windows specific but Win10 only.. on Win7 test snippet works fine.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
