I have difficulties with DropdownMenu positioning.
x coordinate of the menu is correct but the vertical position is wrong always stick to the bottom of the window.
It seems close to https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-jb/issues/195 which is closed though. And the mechanic wasn't the same as of now it seems.
You can see in the 🧵 the details (code & screenshots)

As you can see, the horizontal position is fine, in second screenshot, it's triggered by the (+) in the white area, in the 3rd screenshot, by the (+) from the toolbar

When I debug the values of my anchors, they are perfectly correct, both for x & y coordinates.

What I noticed also is that the menu briefly appears at the right position (for a frame or 2) before landing at the bottom of the screen

Yep, it uses the Box parent as the anchor.
