ST4 does not show Syntax selection popup window

#1

The issue is my being unable to open Syntax popup window to select a specific syntax, only command palette is able to set a syntax I need. Syntax popup window doesn’t show if I click on the bottom-right corner of the main window of ST4, nor does it appear if I go within a menu View -> Syntax, nothing is shown up
I have wayland display manager, gnome 40.2, systemd as a service daemon, 2 screens/monitors related to each other as top and bottom. I try to open Syntax popup window on the top screen, which is recognized a main screen, where main window of ST4 is located
The issue is not seen if I work in 1 screen mode
What I am observing also, the issue also is not seen if I go into full-screen mode in ST4, in such a case it shows, but in the bottom screen. So the main window of ST4 is left on the top screen while the Syntax popup goes to the bottom
When I opened journalctl I saw it print out information like Buggy client caused popup to be placed outside of parent window as a consequence of my trial to open a Syntax popup window
Has anyone faced such an issue? Could someone help me what might be going wrong? Is it an issue of ST4 at all? Or it is a bug of, maybe, wayland or gnome?

Thank you in advance

We use standard GTK menus. What version of GTK3 are you using?

Sublime Text only loads GTK3, it can’t possibly launch with only GTK4 installed.
