Anyway, this appears to be a MATE or Mint or Compiz bug. Apparently
what's
happening is that the menu is indeed "dropping down", but _behind_ its parent

gretl bug, it's a bug somewhere in your stack of Desktop, window manager,
compositor. So please take the bug report there -- and you might try being a
little nicer about it if you want a helpful response.
This looks very much like it:
