SUMMARY
In the expanded icon list of system tray, when right clicking, the menu doesn't appear just under the mouse cursor, as in KDE apps and elsewhere in plasmashell. It seems to be placed next to an invisible border of the icon, either to the right or bottom.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Click the system tray's arrow.
2. Right click on an icon.

OBSERVED RESULT
Right-click menu appears some distance to the right or bottom of the mouse cursor.

EXPECTED RESULT
Right-click menu appears just under the mouse cursor.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma:
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.0

Can you try again with 5.24.1? Does it still happen there?

Yes, the same in 5.24.1.
And I tested when the panel is on the bottom edge of the screen. Same problem, but those menu popping up to the right of the icon (like "update") now is to the above (see attachment).

Do you have screenshot of how it looked before? The longer I look at new screenshots, the more it looks like it always was this way :)

Unfortunately, for me it's still the same as before. Built from today's master. See the last two attachments.

With the new systray expander design, now the difference is app's menu popups above the icon, while widget's below the icon.

If we change the popup menu from widgets to appear above the icon, it would be consistent with apps. It would also fix the problem that pointer cursor blocks the menu text (see attachment)

Yeah, that seems sensible.
