In this case it depends on _how much_ to the left you gism is. If it
is too close to the screen border, you can get problems as more levels
of sub-menus are opened to the right.

Maybe wx provides a way of the gui be more "smart", and open the menus
to the right or to the left depending on the position of gism?


cheers
