🚀 go-pugleaf

I am quite certain that it is not a swing/awt issue.  When the x,y is such
that there is enough space for the popup, the complete popup shows.  It
really appears to be clipped to the component's bounds.  What is the
"standard" way of showing the popup?  In the component that owns the popup
or somewhere higher up along the hierarchy?
