drop down filter in Excel

I'm using a standard filter on a run-of-the-mill spreadsheet.
I pressed a shortcut key by accident and now my drop down list has moved to the right, almost as if it's right-aligned.
This is just an example to illustrate the position of the drop down box.

How do I get it back to normal?
Thanks

Peter,
thank for saving me tearing out what little hair I have left!
Just as follow-up question, do have any idea what was the shortcut key(s) I pressed by accident?
