Subject: 28.1; mouse menu appears in wrong location (multi-monitor)
Date: Mon, 12 Sep 2022 13:20:52 -0500

[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

If I bring up any of the mouse menus by holding control and clicking any
mouse button, the menu appears at the far left edge of the screen instead
of where the mouse was located.

This happens in a multi-monitor setup only. If you use one monitor, or if
you use the leftmost monitor in a multi-monitor setup, the menu appears at
the mouse click location as it should.

Steps to reproduce
--------------------------------
emacs -Q
Move emacs to any monitor but the leftmost
C-mouse1

Setup
--------------------------------
* Gnome wayland 42.4
* Fedora 36 linux
* Emacs 28.1

A MacOS user told me that this bug is reproducible on that platform as
well.

Thanks.  Please answer the questions below:

Does the bug still happen if you build Emacs --with-x-toolkit=no?

And if you switch to an X session?

I think this is a separate bug.

Further information:

* This bug does does not present itself if I start a session under X. The
problem appears to be Wayland-specific.

* I built 28.1 from scratch with "--with-x-toolkit=no" and the bug
disappears. The menu is in the correct location, although it does not look
the same as it did.

* I built 28.1 from scratch with "--with-x-toolkit=yes" and no other
changes and the bug is back.

Thanks for looking into this!
