Popups - various issues

I'm running into several issues with popups for achievements, loot roll wins, and alerts for garrison mission completion.

As far as the achievement popups and loot roll wins the issue I'm running into is that they slowly seem to be drifting down off the screen. When I started my play session they appeared at the top center. By the time I stopped they were appearing at bottom center, even edging off the screen completely. Even though I hadn't changed settings. It almost seems like they are appearing at the bottom of where the previous one was.

Second, for the garrison popups, sometimes they have text, other times they don't.

I'm not sure what is causing any of these issue and they are are relatively minor things but they can detract from what is otherwise an amazing looking UI.

I should also add that there isn't any errors to speak of and I'm pretty sure a /reloadui fixes the first issue for a while but the second one seems completely random as far as I can tell.

Seems it has something to do with Aurora. That's causing a lot of UI issues with anything but the main hud and action bars.

Such as tooltips on the map to appear underneath of it and other things.

Further testing seems to indicate there are some issues with Aurora. I did a completely clean install with no other addons and it was causing the tooltips on the map to disappear.

Disabling aurora fixed that particular issue. I'm not sure if I should be reporting this here or on the aurora addon page.

Edit: Tested Aurora by itself and it didn't seem to have any issues. So that narrows it down to the !Aurora_RealUI that is causing my issues.

Edit 2: Twice confirmed. Did another clean install and this time only disabled !Aurora_RealUI and no issues. Seems like it's getting the strata wrong or something because I can see text behind the map if the thing I'm point at is near they edge of it.

Edit 3: Nailed down where the issue is a little more. When I have the map in what I'm going to call big mode, the issue shows it self. But when I have it in small mode (toggle button next to the close button) it's fine. If I knew lua I could probably fix it myself, but I don't, so yeah...

Edit 4: I still don't know if that fixes my other pop up issues but we'll see.

Loot win notifications still creeping up the screen. No idea what's causing it.

Edit: To add more to this, it seems to happen when multiple popups show up at the same time. When a new pop up occurs it happens ontop of the old one.

It doesn't have to just a loot roll pop up, it can be garrison ones as well, or any other kind of alert.

i'm not seeing the positional issue with the alert frames. This has come up before as a conflict with an addon not included with RealUI.

Do you know which one? I'm not using very many extra addons, ones not included in Realui:

Archy
Gathermate2
Handynotes + Draenor Treasures
Quecho
rDamageFont
rCombatText
TomTom
xCT+

Out of those, both Archy and Handynotes were installed after I started seeing the issue pop up (pun intended). So those two can be ruled out.

I would just disable all of them, then re-enable them one at a time until you see the issue again.

Reporting back that I've disabled all extra addons and played extensively with the default package for quite a while and the issue is still occuring.

It has something to do with the position of popups/toasts not resetting when more than one is on the screen at the same time.

I just want to add to this that I have disabled all non RealUI addons and I have the same issue. Loot win rolls, item upgrades from quests, and follower mission popups all steadily creep off the screen if I haven't done a /reloadui recently.

Glad I'm not the only one having the issue with the popups. I thought I was doing something wrong for a while.
