Just wondering about bug 431423, where the menu does NOT appears where the mouse pointer was. (In reply to Andrey Loskutov from comment #1) > Just wondering about bug 431423, where the menu does NOT appears where the > mouse pointer was. Different issue: AFAICT in that case setLocation() isn't being called. Adding an upstream GNOME bug as it might help the situation on Wayland.

Created attachment 272379 [details] Snippet reproducing the issue This seems to be a general implementation issue in GTK. Using Menu.setLocation() is ineffectual as the menu always pops up where the mouse pointer is. Furthermore, Menu.setLocation() doesn't do anything. It sets some variables in Menu but those variables aren't ever accessed after being set. Attached is a snippet that reproduces the issue. Steps: 1) Launch the snippet, and click the "Open dialog" button. 2) A modal dialog will popup with a button in it. Click the button. 3) The menu pops up normally. Close it by hitting escape. Now the button has focus. 4) Move the mouse anywhere else on the screen and hit enter (to press the button). The menu will popup either at the pointer, or at incorrect coordinates all together. This happens on GTK2 and GTK3, X11 and Wayland. I don't think there is much we can do about it on GTK2 but GTK3.22 has API for this case: gtk_menu_popup_at_rect(). There is also API to have a menu be attached to a widget: gtk_menu_popup_at_widget(). This might be useful when Control.setMenu() is invoked.
