this will be positioned at widget, aligning their anchor points. widget_anchor and menu_anchor determine anchor points on widget and this to pin together. this can optionally be offset by rect_anchor_dx and rect_anchor_dy.

Anchors should be specified under the assumption that the text direction is left-to-right; they will be flipped horizontally automatically if the text direction is right-to-left.

Other properties that influence the behaviour of this function are anchor_hints and menu_type_hint. Connect to the popped_up signal to find out how it was actually positioned.
