Hi, Well, I have not been able to find a solution for this issue. I have tried numerous other window managers, and they handle the menus correct.
As the issue has now gone beyond irretating, I have actually stopped using my second screen for a bit. By process of ilimination, I can only deduce that it is DR17 that is at fault... So how we gonna debug this ?
