Screenshot of the really wide menu - note the mouse cursor position

Description of problem:

Open cinnamon menu with super (i.e. Windows) key.
Use right-hand arrow to move from the group (like 'All Applications') to a program.
Use the left-hand arrow to move back again and the right-hand edge of the menu jumps to the position of the mouse cursor.

You can keep changing the mouse position and repeating the above - the menu edge will keep jumping to the mouse cursor.

See the attached screenshot of the problem - note the position of the mouse cursor.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
