I could fix that problem. The PopupMenu will reveal like the one in the ActionBar : https://stackoverflow.com/a/29702608/1185087

Instead of popupMenu.show(); You need to do like this

        popupMenu.show();
        if (popupMenu.getDragToOpenListener() instanceof ListPopupWindow.ForwardingListener) {
            ListPopupWindow.ForwardingListener listener = (ListPopupWindow.ForwardingListener) popupMenu
                    .getDragToOpenListener();
            listener.getPopup().setHorizontalOffset(x);
            listener.getPopup().setVerticalOffset(y);

            listener.getPopup().show();
        }

Calculate the position of anchor view or Button you want to display the popup to set the HorizontalOffset(x) and VerticalOffset(y).

pop up menu is always anchored to a view (button) and will always appear above or below the view it is attached to, depending upon the space available.

if you want to position the menu as your needs better use dialogs for this purpose or pop up window.
