Description

Platform: Windows (very likely exists everywhere, but none of my Linux boxes have working rotation support)

Main display is a laptop display, 1600 x 900. Secondary display to the right is 1200 x 1920. Tertiary display to the right of that is 1280 x 720. Tertiary display appears irrelevant to problem.

When clicking on taskbar tray on left most monitor, I get the menu with totally incorrect internal dimensions, and have to scroll many lines into view to see anything:

When clicking on taskbar tray on secondary monitor, the menu appears with the correct internal dimensions, but is located complete out of the correct position (this happens on all systems with multiple monitors, not just with large resolution differences):

When selecting the system tray menu on the tertiary monitor, it appears both extremely out of place, as well as with the wrong internal dimensions:

... I suspect, that it is trying to draw the menu in the absolute coordinates for the desktop, and using the absolute desktop dimensions, when it should be doing it based on the currently active display rather than the entire desktop space.
