Same problem on Linux Mint (22.1 Cinnamon), looks like this, sub menus are not displayed:
Same here running Ubuntu 24.04 with Cinnamon.
I can confirm this is still an issue in Linux Mint (22.2) and Cinnamon (6.4).
Context-Menu of "Settings" is fixed with 057.1 on Linux Mint 22.2. But "About" and "default"-Menu still don't work.
Also having this issue on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed
Same on Linux Mint 22.2 Cinnamon v. 6.4.8 X11
Xubuntu 25.04 also affected.
This seems an upstream library issue https://github.com/fyne-io/fyne/issues/4843
any updates on how to pass though the issue?
Have the same isssue - Linux Mint 22.2 Cinnamon. Seems to have been going on for a while and they seem uninterested in fixing the upstream fyne-io/fyne#4843 as mentioned above
