Default File dropdown menu appears on the left side, not viewable multimonitor

On a multi monitor setup (e.g. 3 monitors)
if the jdownloader window is in maximize view and is on the middle monitor

when I click File menu, the drop down menu appears on the left monitor
this means it is not viewable if the left monitor is currently turn off.




Expected behaviour = the File drop menu should appear on the same monitor that the jdownloader maximized window is on (in this case the middle monitor)

@madmax2: What OS are you using? What theme? the monitor layout is X-Y-Z ? left-middle-right and JDownloader maximized on Y/middle? Does it also happen when you enlarge window to full size instead of maximized state?
We're not able to reproduce it on Linux/Windows.

Windows 10
theme = custom theme, not sure the relevance of how this
would cause this behavior

Monitor Layout
3 2 1

3 = 1600 x 1200
2 = 1920 x 1080
1 = 1920 x 1080

If I enlarge the window to be as big as the display
and the window edge is very close to the left edge of the display (less than 1 cm) then it will also have this issue of the menu appearing on the next monitor to the left

e.g. JD window is on monitor 2, menu appears on monitor 3
JD window on monitor 1, then menu appears on monitor 2

If the jd window edge is like 2cm from edge of the monitor display then the menu dropdown will show under file menu more properly (but still not great since it is appearing outside of the edge of jdownloader window.

Basically the menu dropdown is not contained within the jdownloader window
(unlike some other software), that is why this problem occurs.

Example


This is a software example of file drop down menu is contained within the program, so this problem cannot occur

It could cause this issue because the logic of *where/how* to show popups is part of the theme.
Can you please tell us which theme are you using? So we can test and maybe find a solution but no promises.
And can you please test with default one?
