Menu on main monitor (non-floating task bar).

SUMMARY
When the application menu has too many favorites, it doesn't display all menu entries anymore. It will also overlap the task bar or appear in the wrong position depending on if the task bar is floating.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add enough favorites so that the vertical space on the monitor gets filled.

OBSERVED RESULT
With task bar not floating: Menu entries get cut off, and the position is wrong.
With task bar floating: Menu entries get cuff off, and the menu overlaps the task bar. 

EXPECTED RESULT
The menu should appear in the correct position, and offer a way to scroll through the favorites.
