Odd context menu behavior

Hi all,

I've been doing some work involving UIA and context menus, and I've noticed some odd behavior... I'm wondering if this is normal/expected?

When using UIA to observe the UI on Windows Server 2008 R2 I see the following behavior:

- I right-click on the desktop, bringing up a context menu
- I hover on another sub-menu, causing it to appear next to the context menu

At this point I have the following UI hierarchy:

[root element] -> [context menu]

[root element] -> [program manager] -> [sub-context menu]

This seems very odd... is it expected? Or am I perhaps doing something wrong?

Thanks for your time,

Alex
