Linux Mint 17.3 MATE, -gretl- 2016c-git

I've noticed over the last several versions of -gretl- that I can no longer activate the drop-down menus in the results output window. I can fix it by clicking on the 'Windows' menu and then selecting 'Arrange', which sends all the windows to the north-west of my screen, but this is a bug, isn't it?

Once this is fixed, I want to film a new tutorial soon to post onto YT, but none of the screencasting tools I've experimented with (including Vokoscreen) works satisfactorily. Suggestions, please?
