Unusable latte after launching freecad

SUMMARY
Latte with global menu becomes unusable after running an application with a large menu.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Decrease Latte Maximum Length (In my case I set it to 88% (1366x768))
2. Add Global Menu Widget
3. Open an application that has a large menu (I really believe the problem is the size the global menu gets after opening the application, in my case I noticed it when I opened freecad in the Part Design Workbench)

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Usually it gets back to normal when/if I open an application that doesn't use the global menu such as firefox in my case.

Thats how it looks before launching freecad: https://i.imgur.com/bbWepKu.png

If Maximum Length is set to 100% it doesn't happen (https://i.imgur.com/HoTzMix.png)

the widgets I use: https://i.imgur.com/6SrmDLc.png

it also doesn't happen if I remove Global Menu from latte.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch
KDE Plasma Version: 5.18.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.70
Qt Version: 5.14.2
