[Fabounet <fabounet03@xxxxxxxxx>]

oh and by the way, I've just installed gtk 3.10 and I now get the same
placement issue as you :-/
so at least for this bug, it definitely has something to do with gtk 3.10
(which so far has proven to be the worst version ever of this library...)

Title:
  Menu transparency behaves strangely

Status in Cairo-Dock : Core:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  1. In the menus (applications menu, right-click menus), items often
  lose their backgrounds (become fully transparent) when the mouse has
  touched them (and they stay that way until the menu is closed and re-
  opened.

  2.  AFAICT, the menus use the default fill, and there's no way through
  the GUI (I haven't tinkered around with the config files yet) to
  override this.  Worse, I can find no way to set the text colour, so
  the menus in the theme I'm building currently appear black on black.
  This may be me being stupid.

  My setup: Cairo-Dock 3.3.99.beta1, Lubuntu Trusty 64bit, (currently
  running on OpenBox without LXDE), Compton, Intel GM965/GL960 graphics.
  I've attached an affected theme.
