Cannot click right click menu when it overlaps the dock #1818

Whenever a menu is larger and drops down to the bottom of the screen overlapping the dock, I cannot click on the part of the menu that overlaps the dock.

This seems to be Xorg-specific. The equivalent Wayland bug is #1887

I don't think it's Ubuntu (Ubuntu is a distro), if anything it's GNOME shell but I have not seen this behaviour with GNOME shell in anything else so that suggests it has to do with the dock.

One thing I have observed is that some GNOME menus create an overlay that forces you to "click off" to click anything else. Perhaps the dock is always being placed "on top" or is "absolutely" positioned which is conflicting with / on top of this overlay pushing the menu behind so we can't click it.

I'm seeing the same behaviour, it is for sure an issue of the menu popup being overlapped by the dash-to-dock dock, even if the menu appears to be on top, the section of the menu that is over the dock is unclickable.

Also, the zorin devs 'fixed' this issue with their taskbar extension that also has an autohide option, and the popup doesn't draw over the taskbar.
