When one creates a floating menu it is positioned behind the task bar if the bar is on the side or top and is set to not autohide and 'always on top' which causes it to disappear. One can avoid the problem by changing the position in the floating menu position parameters but to a novice it could be confusing. I suggest a user warning or better yet if a taskbar is in the way set the start position such that it isn't being covered up.

Note: In this video the capture software is causing the floating menu to remain apparent but in real life it disappears almost instantly.
