Bug ID: 500584
Summary: Submenus appear misplaced with wayland
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.2.5
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: wayland-generic
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: sergio.calleg...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The issue is particularly evident with those applications that use a lot of
context menus with submenus. The context menus' submenus are quite often
misplaced, at time very far away from their corresponding parent menu, at times
partially below it. This makes using these applications a bit frustrating.
A typical application showing the problem is Libreoffice (tried with the kf5
VCL - the default on KDE).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open application using context menus with submenus (e.g. libreoffice)
2. Open a context menu by right clicking
3. Go to an entry that has a submenu and open it
OBSERVED RESULT
The submenu is often misplaced
EXPECTED RESULT
The submenu should open to the side of its parent menu

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
- may be related to bug https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=488208
- may be related to the way in which the wayland protocols work: I am learning
that wayland prevents applications from deciding where to position their
windows and that all the transient windows must be transient for the top one
which is different from X11 where in a 2 level menu, the secondary menu is
attached to the first level, not to the parent window...
