I doubt that this is a problem with Okular, its more likely related to KXmlGui.

Do you have other Qt or KDE applications with menu bars where the same problem occurs?

Can you describe your screen arrangement precisely? Maybe with screenshots from configuration tools?

Do you use X or Wayland?

Thank you for fast response David.
Indeed, it hapens also with K3b. I have my laptop's build-in display running 2560x1440 (16:9, 200% scaling) and an external monitor connected through a USB-C hub with HDMI running on 1920x1080 px (16:9, 100% scaling). Those both are configured in GNOME settings with Join Display option and the external monitor set as Primary Display. I use Wayland.

Thanks, moving to KXmlGui.

One more thing: Do context menus also appear in the wrong place? (The popup menu that appears when you right-click e. g. on a displayed page.)

Yes when using right mouse clicks in both K3b and Okular the menu pops up mostly in a different place. In some case though it pops up in the right place.

In contrast the earlier mentioned entries from the top menu always shows up in a wrong place.

Reporting in, that I have the same issue on 5.23.0 on Wayland. Also very inconsistent with the right click, as the user above me mentioned.

I have the same problem.

It seems to be a wayland related issue since if I log in with X11 it is normal.
