Hi,

This problem occurs with widgets that has scrollbars (eg: Note, Folder View, etc.). When the scrollbars is present and one right clicks on it the scrollbar menu with the "Scroll here", "Top", etc. entries appears. The problem is that they appear at the place where the widget is placed by default and not at its new position. Here is how to reproduce the bug.

1) Unlock the Widgets.
2) Select Add Widgets
3) Select Notes Widgets (double click it to place it in the default position, i.e. top left corner)
4) Close the Add Widgets window
5) Type some text or new lines into the Notes Widget so that the scrollbar appears.
6) Now right click on the scrollbar, the scroll bar menu appears in the expected position.
7) Now move the notes widget to some far away position, for e.g. to the right bottom corner.
8) Now try right clicking on the scrollbar again, this time the menu appears at the old default position and not at the new position.

The same thing happens even when we start by placing the Widget in a non-default position (i.e. by dragging and dropping it from the Add Widgets window). The Folder View Widget also suffers from this problem.

The expected behaviour would be to place the scrollbar right click menu in accordance with the current position of the widget.

I can post a screenshot if anyone is wondering what I am talking about :-).
