Changing start position of context menu

[isaacplmann]

The context menu tries to orient itself so that it doesn't flow off the side of screen (if possible). The first orientation it tries is to put the top left corner of the context menu at the mouse location. Can you give me more details about your app?

1. What does the event object look like?
2. Are you doing any styling using the position css property?

Thanks for answering so quickly.

1. Would you like to see an example of generated MouseEvent object?
2. I haven't applied any custom styling to this component or any other yet.

1. Yes.

In your console, enter document.body.clientWidth and document.body.clientHeight and let me know what they say.

Width returned 1060, Height returned 10

PS My app has a component that contains a D3.js graph in which I included context menus in the nodes like in the issue I opened a while ago. That context menu also opens from the bottom left corner.

The height is the problem. The context menu thinks it only has 10px of height to work with and is trying to show as much of the context menu as possible in those 10px. Giving your body a min-height in css will fix the problem, but I'm guessing there is some underlying issue that is stopping your body from knowing its real height. Are you using float based layout? Adding a clearfix at the end of the body would help that situation.

clearfix solved it! Thanks!
