Description Yuri Myasoedov 2012-11-20 16:45:29 UTC 
GNOME Panel overlaps context menu, so upper entries of such menu are not available. This effect is shown on the attached screenshot.

Comment 2 Vincent Untz 2012-11-20 16:53:12 UTC 
Are you sure it's gnome-panel, and not gnome-shell? Also, does this happen with all apps or just pidgin (or gtk+ 2.x apps)?
Comment 3 Yuri Myasoedov 2012-11-20 17:23:38 UTC 
I'm not sure about gnome-panel. I can't reproduce this bug on GTK+ 3.x apps; it seems, it affects only GTK+ 2.x.
Comment 4 Yuri Myasoedov 2012-11-20 19:00:42 UTC 
I've succeeded in reproducing the same bug for GIMP, so it's not a pidgin specific bug.
Comment 5 Vincent Untz 2012-11-21 07:41:05 UTC 
I'm 99% sure with the screenshot this is gnome-shell. I'm not sure if that's a gnome-shell or mutter issue, though.
Comment 6 Milan Bouchet-Valat 2012-11-21 07:59:37 UTC 
Yeah, it was fixed in GTK3 (Bug 641999), but not in GTK2. AFAIK, there's no (planned) solution from the Shell itself, so I'm marking this as a duplicate. The way to go is GTK3 anyway.

Comment 7 Milan Bouchet-Valat 2012-11-21 08:02:21 UTC 
OK, there's bug 633620 to handle this from the Shell too.
