Happens with version 3.9.0 - 3.9.1.

Right clicking the Apps entry in the base menu when the Apps submenu is open brings the base level start menu on top, covering the Apps submenu, which remains open. The start menu is also on top of the taskbar, although the overlap is just a pixel or the menu shadow.

It doesn't happen if right clicking before the Apps submenu is open.

BTW, shouldn't there be some sort of context menu for the Apps submenu rather than nothing?

What do you expect to see in the context menu?

I don't know. :) The main thing was the start menu going above the submenu (and taskbar).

Well I knew about this menu going behind bug but didn't report it to Ivo because I didn't consider it as such a bug. :)

Try the latest version 3.9.3. It tries not to bring the main menu on top when you right-click.
