On my Red Hat 6.0 system, with glibc 2.1, GTK+ 1.2.3, and CVS build of Mozilla from June 18, it seems when I move the apprunner window, say to the absolute righthand side of the screen, the pullout menus (I don't know the correct term for them) do not place themselves very well. In this example, I tried pulling out some of my bookmark folders, and with apprunner placed at the extreme righthand side of the display, it is virtually impossible to read what is on these menus. I will attach a screenshot to demonstrate.

Pavlov, is there anything we can do about this?

this will go away after xp menus are landed hopefully. the problem is is that gtk sizes its menus before they are shown, but since we are adding them after the base menu is shown, they just show right there.. not sure how to fix this with gtk native menus.. i will make sure this works properly with xpmenus
So, now that XP Menus have landed, is this still a problem?

we now use xpmenus, so this is a dup *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 9454 ***
Status: RESOLVED → VERIFIED
As the original reporter of this bug, I agree this is now a duplicate of 9454, which is now probably more relevant to the current situation with the XP Menus.
