Observed result

SUMMARY
I have assigned the app logo on the top left corner of each window to open application menu upon clicking. Instead of appearing near the icon, it appears in a weird position in the middle of the window. Ignore my poor English, it's not my native language

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a window
2. Click on the app logo on the top 
3. Take note of the menu position

OBSERVED RESULT
Attached

EXPECTED RESULT
The application menu should just appear below the logo. Cannot attach another video in this post :(
