Bug Description
When I try to open the mint menu, it's elevated from the bottom mate panel somewhat. It should be seamless against the panel without any space. If you type text in the search box, it will reset to its proper position. If you click the menu after doing this, it will also appear to be normal. If you click it any more, it will go back to having a gap. I've attached an image showing this. This from what I've tested only seems to affect this plugin, and not the regular mate menu.
Current setup:
* OS: Arch linux
* Desktop Environment: Mate
* Window Manager: Compiz 0.9.12.1
* Window Decorator: Emerald 0.9
* Graphics card: GTX 760
* Driver: NVidia proprietary

Xfce has a similar situation.
Xfce's normal menu is fine, but the quite popular Whisker Menu for Xfce elevates like you describe.
Currently in Manjaro one of our changes to Compiz defaults is to set Fixed Window Placement position for Whisker Menu windows.: /github. com/manjaro/ packages- community/ blob/master/ compiz- manjaro/ compiz- manjaro- defaults. patch#L170

The settings as shown fixes it no matter the position of the Xfce panel.
Also the calendar display pop-up when clicking the clock in current development version of xfce4-panel also has a gap. (I haven't gotten around to adding that to our defaults yet.)
The solution was originally found by one of our users and reported to me here: /forum. manjaro. org/index. php?topic= 12618.msg172013 #msg172013
