Hmm, that seems to work fine too, before and after screenshots
attached--the bottom and right edges of the images are the bottom and
right edges of my screen.  If this isn't what you're seeing, I wonder if
it's a theme (or gtk version) issue?

The screenshots also illustrate the problem I noted before, i.e. that
"400%" gets highlighted because the menu position has been adjusted a
bit, when it should still be 50% that gets highlighted initially.

Cheeri,
Calum.
