Thanks, I have 3.22.5. I had tried `gtk-menu-popup-at-widget` but it didn't work. I've tried lots of combinations to try and get it to work without success. Like this: self.menu.popup_at_widget(self.anchor,Gdk.Gravity.SOUTH_WEST,Gdk.Gravity.NORTH_WEST,None) I tried with self.menu being the first menu out of the uibuilder and also with menu that I built manually (using Gtk.Menu, Gtk.MenuItem, etc) and attached to the menubar. Both kinds of menu appear as expected and work with the mouse just fine but they are different: * The uimanager menu is <class 'gi.repository.Gtk.ImageMenuItem'> * The manually built menu is <class 'gi.overrides.Gtk.Menu'> This leads to different behaviour when I call popup_at_widget. If I pull 'self.menu' out of UIManager then I get an error: self.menu.popup_at_widget(self.anchor, Gdk.Gravity.SOUTH_WEST,Gdk.Gravity.NORTH_WEST,None) AttributeError: 'ImageMenuItem' object has no attribute 'popup_at_widget' Whereas if I use the manually built menu I get warnings: Gtk-WARNING **: no trigger event for menu popup Warning: g_object_set_data: assertion 'G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed self.menu.popup_at_widget(self.anchor,Gdk.Gravity.SOUTH_WEST, Gdk.Gravity.NORTH_WEST,None) It makes no difference whether self.anchor is the box widget or the menubar widget pulled from UI manager. The menubar widget is <class 'gi.repository.Gtk.MenuBar'> The box widget is box <class 'gi.overrides.Gtk.Box'> > It's available for GTK+ 3.22 and up, so I cannot test it to verify. My other thought is that popup_at_widget is only 3.22+. I wanted to find a solution that worked in Gtk3 and Gtk2 because I am evaluating both of them (there are things I need that can't be done using Gtk3 without falling back on Xlib). So perhaps the above isn't the way, and there is another way to achieve this... I appreciate any help.
