Exploring this on my (installed main) Ubuntu 19.10 system, I have an open terminal, if I right-click on the terminal making it active, then move to background well away from the terminal and right- click the background, the menu doesn't open where I have my mouse- pointer, but it appears near the cursor position in the gnome-terminal. If I click on this chromium-browser window, so it's active, the cursor is this being-typed window, then move the pointer to my other screen and right-click the menu - I'd expect the menu to open near my pointer - but it opens near the cursor on chromium. I have music playing using `audacious`; if I click on that window, then move the mouse-pointer to background on either display and right-click background - the menu appears where I expect it; right near by mouse- pointer. Hexchat acts just like terminal/chromium - ie. it doesn't matter where my mouse-cursor is when I right-click the background - it always appears in area where I enter text into my IRC window. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1844601 Title: right clicking on background - menu appears often well away from pointer To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1844601/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
