For me, this only happens under certain circumstances on OS8

• Wayland (Secure) session
• Low resolution screen so that the context menu height is greater than half the screen height so tends to open downwards
• The Dock hide setting is either "When the focused window is maximised" or "When the focused window overlaps the dock". For other settings either the dock hides or the menu does not overlap it.

It does not happen on an X session or on OS7.1

[diogopessoa]

Yes, that's my case.
The screen resolution on my notebook is low 1366x768;

I also have elementary 7.1 installed on the same machine, but it doesn't happen.

I can reproduce. Secure Session only.

Screen resolution is 1366x768. Dock hide behavior is "When the focused window overlaps the dock".
