Ah, I see. I remember that from using a Mac.

If you want to have the menu show up at the position of the mouse
cursor (like <C-down-mouse-3>), just remove the explicit position
from the call to `popup-menu':

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun mouse-menu-bar-open ()
  (interactive)
  (popup-menu (mouse-menu-bar-map)))

(global-set-key (kbd "<C-S-down-mouse-1>") #'mouse-menu-bar-open)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Above I set that to control + shift + left-click, but again,
maybe on a Mac trackpad that would be <S-down-mouse-3>.
