Item frames (and items within) when removed from a ceiling, drop atop, not under, the block
The Bug
When I place an item frame on the ceiling, and an item in there, and then attempt to remove the item and the frame, both drop on top of the roof, instead of coming down from the ceiling. The roof/ceiling is one birch planks thick.
Steps to Reproduce
- Build the setup as shown in the attachment below. setup.png
- Switch into survival mode and destroy the item frame.
- Take note as to whether or not the item frame is dropped above the diamond blocks or below them.
Observed Behavior
Destroying item frames and contents within them that are attached to ceilings drops the items above blocks.
Expected Behavior
Destroying item frames and contents within them that are attached to ceilings would drop the items below blocks.

Duplicate of MC-123848. Just to clarify, the glow item frame does indeed drop when removed from the ceiling, it's just that it drops above the blocks. See the parent ticket for further information.

Items which were previously inserted into an item frame but are then ejected will be spawned slightly higher than expected (off-center relative to the item frame), especially when compared to vertical facing item frames. The cause of this issue is the same as MC-123848 in that the item frame spawns the item from its lowest point and does not account for the item frame's facing direction at all.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Place an item frame down
- Insert an item into it
- Tick freeze the game
/tick freeze
- Destroy the item frame in survival
Observed Behavior:
The lowest point of the item will be used to align the spawn position with the center of the horizontal facing item frame.
(Notice how the bottom of the item is centered with the center of the item frame.)
In comparison, vertical facing item frames spawn the item exactly centered:
Expected Result:
The item would spawn against the item frame using the center of it's hitbox to align the spawn position with the center of the item frame.

Did some extra testing: This happens through at least three blocks.
Could you please remove the 18w01a from the title of your ticket?
Sounds fair enough? Probably relevant to whatever update added ceiling frames, too.
I should test backwards.
I duped this report for 1.13 (sorry Mods)
FWIW
I also tried this near Y=1. Placing an item frame on the bottom surface of the rock above and then breaking the frame causes the frame to float up through the solid blocks until it hits air. In my case, the natural surface at around Y=63
I wonder if a hopper placed up top would take the teleported item.
This is still an issue with 1.14 snapshots (currently with 18w49a). Removing the maps on item frames placed on the ceiling makes the map clipping through the roof. Attached screenshot: https://bugs.mojang.com/secure/thumbnail/192723/_thumb_192723.png
Can someone please check if that's still an issue in the latest 1.14 development snapshot? It might be fixed now I'm not sure.

Still an issue in 1.21.
The cause of this bug seems to be that items popping out of frames are always given a set velocity upwards. So when frames are under a block they get sent into that block and flung out randomly.
This mechanic is especially frustrating with item frames underwater because items are given a velocity upwards combined with the buoyancy of items means they always go rocketing towards the surface. Imgur video of the problem
Can confirm in 1.21.4.
